How Much Is 78.06 Grams of Baking Powder in Tablespoons?
78.06 grams of baking powder equals 5.43 tbsp. Baking powder has a density of 230g per cup. Because grams measure weight and tablespoons measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 78.06 grams of baking powder
- 1 cup of baking powder = 230g
- 78.06g ÷ 230g/cup = 0.34 cups × 16 = 5.43 tablespoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Baking powder can clump or settle during storage. Stir or sift before measuring by volume for consistent 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 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.
