Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 230g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 18.33 grams of baking powder
  2. 1 cup of baking powder = 230g
  3. 18.33g ÷ 230g/cup = 0.08 cups × 16 = 1.28 tablespoons

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

Measuring Tip

Baking powder loses potency over time. If yours is more than 6 months old, test it: drop a teaspoon into hot water. If it bubbles vigorously, it is still active.

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 Tablespoon?

A tablespoon (tbsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 14.787 milliliters, 3 teaspoons, or 1/16 of a cup. It is commonly used for measuring smaller amounts of ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 1.28 tbsp, based on baking powder 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, then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 18.33 grams: 18.33 ÷ 230 = 0.08 cups × 16 = 1.28 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh baking powder on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
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: 1.28 tbsp ÷ 16 = 0.0796957 cups, then 0.0796957 × 230g/cup = 18.33g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
