How Much Is 17.92 Ounces of Cake Flour in Cups?
17.92 ounces of cake flour equals 4.46 cups. That's 508.02g, and Cake flour has a density of 114g per cup. Because ounces measure weight and cups measure volume, the result depends on the ingredient's density.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 17.92 ounces of cake flour
- Convert ounces to grams: 17.92 × 28.35 = 508.02g
- 1 cup of cake flour = 114g
- 508.02g ÷ 114g/cup = 4.46 cups
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Humidity affects cake flour weight. In humid conditions, flour absorbs moisture and weighs more per cup. Store it in an airtight container for consistent results.

Understanding the Units
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.
What is a Cup?
In US cooking, a cup measures volume, not weight. One standard US cup holds 236.588 ml of liquid. Because different ingredients have different densities, a cup of one ingredient can weigh very differently from a cup of another.
