Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 253g/cup = cups
  1. Start with 25 grams of egg yolks
  2. 1 cup of egg yolks = 253g
  3. 25g ÷ 253g/cup = 0.10 cups

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

A whole large egg without shell weighs about 50g. When separating eggs for a recipe, weigh the whites and yolks individually for the most accurate results.

Understanding the Units

What is a Gram?

Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.

What is a Cup?

The US cup (236.588 ml) is slightly smaller than the metric cup used in Australia and some other countries (250 ml). When following recipes from different countries, check which cup standard is being used.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 0.10 cups, based on egg yolks having a density of 253g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 253 (grams per cup) to get cups. For 25 grams: 25 ÷ 253 = 0.10 cups.
The most accurate way is to weigh egg yolks on a kitchen scale, since individual eggs vary in size. If measuring by volume, pour into the measuring cup and read the level at eye height.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 0.10 cups × 253g/cup = 25g. Or use the Cups to Grams converter.
