How Much Is 80 Grams of Raisins in Teaspoons?
80 grams of raisins equals 26.48 tsp. Raisins has a density of 145g per cup. A lighter ingredient like cocoa powder (86g/cup) would fill even more volume at the same weight, which is why ingredient-specific conversions matter.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 80 grams of raisins
- 1 cup of raisins = 145g
- 80g ÷ 145g/cup = 0.55 cups × 48 = 26.48 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Dried fruit weights vary with moisture content. Freshly opened packages weigh more than fruit that has been exposed to air and dried further.

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?
One teaspoon holds about 5 milliliters. There are 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon and 48 teaspoons in a cup. Teaspoon accuracy matters most with leaveners like baking powder and baking soda, where small differences affect rise and texture.
