Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

One tablespoon holds about 15 milliliters. There are 16 tablespoons in a cup and 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. In baking, tablespoon measurements are used for butter, oil, honey, and other ingredients where a full cup would be too much.

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.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 1,667.50 g, based on baking powder having a density of 230g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 14.38 (grams per tablespoon for baking powder). For 116 tablespoons: 116 × 14.38 = 1,667.50 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh baking powder on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring spoon and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Weight-per-cup values vary because of differences in how the ingredient is measured (spooned vs scooped), grind size, moisture content, and settling during storage. Our values use standardized measurement methods from established culinary references.
Reverse the conversion: 1,667.50 g ÷ 14.38 = 116 tablespoons. Or use the Grams to Tablespoons converter.
