How Much Is 142 Teaspoons of All-Purpose Flour in Grams?
142 teaspoons of all-purpose flour weighs 370.27 g. This is based on all-purpose flour having a density of 125.16g per cup. Because teaspoons measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 142 teaspoons.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 142 teaspoons of all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon of all-purpose flour = 2.61g

Understanding the Units
What is a Teaspoon?
One teaspoon holds about 5 milliliters. There are 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon and 48 teaspoons in a cup. Teaspoon accuracy matters most with leaveners like baking powder and baking soda, where small differences affect rise and texture.
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.
