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 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.

If you have a kitchen scale, weighing molasses gives you an exact starting point for this conversion. If you need to measure by volume instead, lightly oil the measuring spoon first so molasses slides out cleanly, then read the level on a flat surface.
Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The grams to teaspoons result for molasses should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
The same weight of different ingredients fills different volumes because each ingredient has a different density. A gram of molasses fills a different number of teaspoons than a gram of a lighter or heavier ingredient. That is why this converter needs to know which ingredient you are measuring.
