Frequently asked questions
How many grams is a teaspoon of baking powder?
A level teaspoon of baking powder weighs about 4.6 g, and a tablespoon (3 teaspoons) about 13.8 g, from USDA measurements.
Is a US cup the same as a metric cup?
No. A US cup is 236.6 ml and a metric cup (Australia, Canada, New Zealand) is 250 ml, so a metric cup of an ingredient weighs about 5–6% more than the US weights here.
Why weigh instead of using cups?
How you fill a cup changes how much goes in: scooped flour packs down, spooned flour stays loose. Weighing gives the same amount every time, which matters most for baking.
