Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 14.19g/tbsp = grams
  1. Start with 0.33 tablespoons of butter
  2. 1 tablespoon of butter = 14.19g
  3. 0.33 × 14.19 = 4.68g

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

Measuring Tip

Softened butter and melted butter measure differently by volume. Melted butter settles with no air pockets, giving a slightly higher weight per cup.

Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

A tablespoon is roughly the volume of a large soup spoon. In precise terms, 1 US tablespoon equals 14.787 ml, which is very close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most of the world. Three teaspoons make one tablespoon.

What is a Gram?

Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 4.68 g, based on butter having a density of 227g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of tablespoons by 14.19 (grams per tablespoon for butter). For 0.33 tablespoons: 0.33 × 14.19 = 4.68 g.
For the most accurate results, weigh butter 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.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 4.68 g ÷ 14.19 = 0.33 tablespoons. Or use the Grams to Tablespoons converter.
