How Much Is 3.04 Tablespoons of Cornstarch in Grams?
3.04 tablespoons of cornstarch equals 24.32 g. Cornstarch has a density of 128g per cup (8g per tablespoon), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 3.04 tablespoons of honey would be 64.6 g.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 3.04 tablespoons of cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon of cornstarch = 8g
- 3.04 × 8 = 24.32g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh cornstarch on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary by 20-30% depending on how the flour is scooped.

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?
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.
