Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 24.6 grams of cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 1 cup of cheddar cheese (shredded) = 113g
- 24.6g ÷ 113g/cup = 0.22 cups

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
