Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 128g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 340.48 grams of cornstarch
  2. 1 cup of cornstarch = 128g
  3. 340.48g ÷ 128g/cup = 2.66 cups × 16 = 42.56 tablespoons

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

Measuring Tip

For the most consistent results, weigh cornstarch on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

Understanding the Units

What is a Gram?

Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.

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 42.56 tbsp, based on cornstarch having a density of 128g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 128 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 340.48 grams: 340.48 ÷ 128 = 2.66 cups × 16 = 42.56 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh cornstarch on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, sift or whisk first to break up clumps, then spoon into the measuring spoon and level off. Do not scoop directly from the bag.
Yes, quite a bit. If you spoon the flour into your measuring spoon and level it off, you will get about 128 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 140.8 to 160 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
Reverse the conversion: 42.56 tbsp ÷ 16 = 2.66 cups, then 2.66 × 128g/cup = 340.48g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
