Understanding the Units

What is a Gram?

A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.

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 0.19 cups, based on sour cream having a density of 230g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 230 (grams per cup) to get cups. For 43.13 grams: 43.13 ÷ 230 = 0.19 cups.
For the most accurate results, weigh sour cream on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 0.19 cups × 230g/cup = 43.13g. Or use the Cups to Grams converter.
