Formula and Step-by-Step

(ounces × 28.35g/oz) ÷ 114g/cup = cups
  1. Start with 220 ounces of cake flour
  2. Convert ounces to grams: 220 × 28.35 = 6,236.90g
  3. 1 cup of cake flour = 114g
  4. 6,236.90g ÷ 114g/cup = 54.71 cups

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Understanding the Units

What is an Ounce?

Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.

What is a Cup?

A cup is a US customary unit of volume equal to 236.588 milliliters or 8 fluid ounces. It is the most common volume measurement in American recipes. One cup can be divided into 16 tablespoons or 48 teaspoons.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 54.71 cups, based on cake flour having a density of 114g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
First convert ounces to grams (1 ounce = 28.3495g), then divide by 114 (grams per cup). For 220 ounces: 220 × 28.3495 = 6,236.90g, then 6,236.90 ÷ 114 = 54.71 cups.
For the most accurate results, weigh cake flour on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, sift or whisk first to break up clumps, then spoon into the measuring cup and level off. Do not scoop directly from the bag.
Yes, quite a bit. If you spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level it off, you will get about 114 grams per cup. If you dip directly into the flour bag and sweep level, the flour packs tighter and you can end up with 125.4 to 142.5 grams per cup instead. This conversion uses the spoon-and-level method, which is the standard most baking references follow.
Reverse the conversion: 54.71 cups × 114g/cup = 6,236.90g, then 6,236.90g ÷ 28.3495 = 220 ounces. Or use the Cups to Ounces converter.
