How Much Is 680 Grams of Molasses in Tablespoons?
680 grams of molasses equals 32.00 tbsp. Molasses has a density of 340g per cup. A lighter ingredient like flour (125g/cup) would fill more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 680 grams of molasses
- 1 cup of molasses = 340g
- 680g ÷ 340g/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
Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

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.
