How Much Is 38.67 Grams of Cream Cheese in Teaspoons?
38.67 grams of cream cheese equals 8.00 tsp. Cream cheese has a density of 232g 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 38.67 grams of cream cheese
- 1 cup of cream cheese = 232g
- 38.67g ÷ 232g/cup = 0.17 cups × 48 = 8.00 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Spoon cream cheese into the measuring spoon and pack gently to fill gaps. Do not scoop directly from the container, which leaves air pockets.

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 Teaspoon?
In baking, teaspoon measurements are critical for ingredients where precision changes the outcome. Too much baking soda (1 tsp = 6g) creates a metallic taste, while too little means flat results.
