Convert 300 grams or any weight to cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, and milliliters by ingredient density, cup standard, or a custom grams-per-cup value.
300 Grams to Cups Converter
This converter is built around the common recipe amount of 300 grams. Instead of treating 300 grams as one fixed cup value, it adjusts the answer based on the ingredient you choose. For example, 300 grams is about 1.515 cups of granulated sugar, 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 1.327 cups of butter, and 1.268 cups of water using the listed US-cup weights.
The calculator uses each ingredient’s approximate grams-per-cup value to convert 300 grams into cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons. Since cups measure volume and grams measure weight, dense ingredients like honey, molasses, and peanut butter take up less cup space than lighter ingredients like flour, powdered sugar, oats, or cocoa powder.
300 Grams to Cups, Tablespoons, and Teaspoons Table
The table below gives approximate US-cup conversions (16 US tablespoons or 48 US teaspoons per cup). The calculator’s named presets use King Arthur Baking’s ingredient weight chart, scaled to one cup; water uses approximately 1 g/mL. Other rows retain approximate recipe conventions: use Custom grams per US cup to reproduce a listed weight. Metric and imperial cup results differ. Use it when a recipe lists 300g and you want a quick cup, tablespoon, or teaspoon estimate without weighing the ingredient again.

Why 300 Grams Doesn’t Fill Every Cup the Same Way
Three hundred grams is always the same weight, but the volume it takes up can change a lot. Light, airy ingredients like flour, oats, and cocoa powder need more cup space than dense ingredients such as honey, peanut butter, or molasses.
For exact baking, a scale is still the best tool. When you just need a quick kitchen estimate, the 300-gram calculator and chart above give you approximate conversions to cups, tablespoons, and teaspoons; packing and brand can change the actual weight.
