About cooking conversions

Cooking converters translate between US cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, fluid ounces and the metric milliliter/gram units used in European and pastry recipes. We follow standard US measurements (1 cup = 240 ml, 1 tbsp = 14.79 ml) — exactly the values used in published American cookbooks.

Key formulas

  • Cups → ml (US)ml = cups × 240
  • tbsp → tsptsp = tbsp × 3

Common mistakes

  • Volume vs weight for flour

    1 cup of flour can be 120–150g depending on how it's packed — weigh it for baking.

  • US vs UK cup

    1 US cup = 240 ml; 1 UK metric cup = 250 ml. Different by 4%.

Did you know?

  • Butter sticks

    1 US stick = 8 tbsp = ½ cup = 113 g — a useful baking anchor.

Frequently asked

Are US and UK cups the same?

No. 1 US cup = 240 ml. 1 UK 'metric' cup = 250 ml. 1 Imperial cup (rarely used in modern recipes) = 284 ml. Always check the recipe's origin.

How many tablespoons are in a stick of butter?

1 US stick = 8 tablespoons = ½ cup = 113 g.
