How Much Is 700 Grams of Sunflower Seeds in Cups?
700 grams of sunflower seeds equals 5.00 cups. Sunflower seeds has a density of 140g per cup. Because grams measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 700 grams of sunflower seeds
- 1 cup of sunflower seeds = 140g
- 700g ÷ 140g/cup = 5 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Ground and whole sunflower seeds have different densities. Make sure you are using the form your recipe specifies.

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?
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.
