Formula and Step-by-Step

grams ÷ 155g/cup × 48 = teaspoons
  1. Start with 6.46 grams of garlic powder
  2. 1 cup of garlic powder = 155g
  3. 6.46g ÷ 155g/cup = 0.04 cups × 48 = 2.00 teaspoons

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

Measuring Tip

Ground spices like garlic powder settle and compact during storage. Stir or fluff before measuring by volume for a consistent amount.

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?

A teaspoon (tsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 4.929 milliliters or 1/3 of a tablespoon. It is the standard measure for spices, leaveners, extracts, and other small-quantity ingredients.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 2.00 tsp, based on garlic powder having a density of 155g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Divide the grams by 155 (grams per cup) to get cups, then multiply by 48 to get teaspoons. For 6.46 grams: 6.46 ÷ 155 = 0.04 cups × 48 = 2.00 tsp.
For the most accurate results, weigh garlic powder on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
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: 2.00 tsp ÷ 48 = 0.0416774 cups, then 0.0416774 × 155g/cup = 6.46g. Or use the Teaspoons to Grams converter.
