240 Grams to Cups Converter

This tool handles any ingredient at exactly 240 grams, adjusting the cup result automatically based on density. Rather than giving one fixed answer, it accounts for how much space each ingredient actually takes up. Select from the dropdown and the calculator will show you cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons — for instance, 240 grams works out to about 1.2 cups of sugar, 2 cups of flour, 1.06 cups of butter, and 1.01 cups of water.

Each ingredient’s estimated grams-per-cup value is what drives the conversion from 240 grams to cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons. Weight and volume are two different things — heavy, dense items like honey, condensed milk, and molasses end up occupying far less cup space than lighter, airier ones such as oats, almond flour, or cocoa powder.

240 Grams to Cups, Tablespoons, and Teaspoons Table

The table below covers more than 60 ingredients and shows the cup, tablespoon, and teaspoon equivalent of 240 grams for each one. Keep it on hand whenever a recipe calls for 240g and you need a fast volume estimate without reaching for the scale.

Why 240 Grams Is Different for Each Ingredient

The weight stays locked at 240 grams regardless of what you are measuring, but the volume it occupies shifts considerably from one ingredient to the next. Granulated sugar comes out to 1.2 cups at 240 grams, flour fills a full 2 cups, and honey — being far denser — takes up only about 0.71 cups of space.

Whenever precision matters in baking, a kitchen scale is the surest way to hit 240 grams exactly — scooping, packing, or sifting can throw off the volume considerably. When you just need a quick ballpark, the 240-gram converter and reference table above have you covered for cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons.
