Ingredient questions

All-purpose flour FAQ.

How many grams are in a cup of all-purpose flour?

This page uses 120g per US cup as the PantryGauge reference. The named ingredient and measurement basis matter, so do not reuse the figure for a different product state.

How should all-purpose flour be measured?

Fluff the flour, spoon it into a dry cup, and level the top. When a recipe gives grams, weighing remains the more repeatable option.

Can I use this all-purpose flour conversion for another type?

Use caution. Sifting, packing, and flour type can change the mass in a cup. Check the recipe's exact ingredient and, when available, its product-specific weight reference.
