Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 117.12 grams of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of vanilla extract = 244g
- 117.12g ÷ 244g/cup = 0.48 cups × 48 = 23.04 teaspoons

Understanding the Units
What is a Gram?
A gram (g) is a metric unit of mass equal to 1/1000 of a kilogram. It is the standard weight measurement for precise baking worldwide. Professional bakers prefer grams because they are more accurate than volume measurements.
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.
