How Much Is 6.67 Grams of Shredded Coconut in Teaspoons?
6.67 grams of shredded coconut equals 4.00 tsp. Shredded coconut has a density of 80g 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 6.67 grams of shredded coconut
- 1 cup of shredded coconut = 80g
- 6.67g ÷ 80g/cup = 0.08 cups × 48 = 4.00 teaspoons
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Toast shredded coconut before adding to recipes for richer flavor. Toasting does not significantly change the weight.

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?
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.
