Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 240g/cup × 16 = tablespoons
  1. Start with 720 grams of light cream
  2. 1 cup of light cream = 240g
  3. 720g ÷ 240g/cup = 3 cups × 16 = 48.00 tablespoons

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

Measuring Tip

For liquids, place your measuring spoon on a flat surface and read at eye level. The bottom of the meniscus (the curve at the surface) should align with the measurement line.

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 is roughly the volume of a large soup spoon. In precise terms, 1 US tablespoon equals 14.787 ml, which is very close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most of the world. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 48.00 tbsp, based on light cream having a density of 240g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 240 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 16 to get tablespoons. For 720 grams: 720 ÷ 240 = 3 cups × 16 = 48.00 tbsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh light cream on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, use a liquid measuring spoon on a flat surface and read the level at eye height.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of light cream changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 48.00 tbsp ÷ 16 = 3 cups, then 3 × 240g/cup = 720g. Or use the Tablespoons to Grams converter.
