Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 253g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 506 grams of egg yolks
  2. 1 cup of egg yolks = 253g
  3. 506g ÷ 253g/cup = 2 cups × 16 = 32.00 tablespoons

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

Measuring Tip

A whole large egg without shell weighs about 50g. When separating eggs for a recipe, weigh the whites and yolks individually for the most accurate results.

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?

One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 32.00 tbsp, based on egg yolks having a density of 253g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 253 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 506 grams: 506 ÷ 253 = 2 cups × 16 = 32.00 tbsp.
The most accurate way is to weigh egg yolks on a kitchen scale, since individual eggs vary in size. If measuring by volume, pour into the measuring spoon and read the level at eye height.
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: 32.00 tbsp ÷ 16 = 2 cups, then 2 × 253g/cup = 506g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
