Cooking and Baking Converter
Runs locally in your browser. Nothing leaves your device.Convert cooking and baking measures between cups, millilitres, teaspoons, tablespoons, grams, ounces, and pounds, with ingredient-specific cup-to-gram values.
Use a comma or period as the decimal separator; do not use thousands separators or fractions.

Good to know
The cooking and baking converter converts directly in your browser between US volume, metric volume, British/Australian measures, and mass. A US cup equals 236.588 mL, a metric cup 250 mL; a US fluid ounce is not the same as an imperial fluid ounce, and an Australian tablespoon at 20 mL holds more than the standard US/UK tablespoon.
Calculation runs locally in the browser. Kitchen measures are not the same worldwide, and gram values additionally depend on the chosen ingredient and measuring method — select an ingredient for realistic gram conversions, or “no ingredient” for pure measure conversion without a weight figure.
Typical use cases
Convert US recipes into metric measures
Convert cups, teaspoons, and tablespoons from US recipes into milliliters or grams to cook them with metric kitchen equipment.
Calculate gram figures for a specific ingredient
Choose the matching ingredient to get realistic gram values for flour, sugar, or other ingredients with different densities.
Adjust Australian or British measurements
Account for the larger Australian tablespoon (20 mL) compared to the US/UK spoon when cooking an Australian recipe.
Tips for better results
Select an ingredient for realistic gram values
Gram values depend heavily on the ingredient — choose the matching ingredient from the list instead of assuming a generic volume-to-weight factor.
Don't equate US and imperial fluid ounces
A US fluid ounce (29.57 mL) differs from the imperial fluid ounce (28.41 mL) — the difference becomes noticeable at larger quantities.
Features
Four measure groups
US volume, metric volume, British/Australian measures, and mass are cleanly separated.
Ingredient-specific gram conversion
Choose an ingredient for realistic gram values, or convert purely between measure types without an ingredient.
Local conversion
Calculation happens directly in the browser, without transmission to a server.
Frequently asked questions
Is a US cup the same as a metric cup?
No. A US cup equals 236.588 mL, a metric cup 250 mL — a small but, across several cups, noticeable difference.
Why do I need an ingredient for gram conversions?
Because the same volume unit weighs differently depending on the ingredient — without an ingredient, the tool can only convert between measures of the same quantity type.
Are my inputs uploaded?
No. Conversion runs entirely locally in the browser.
