Frequently asked questions
How many grams is 1 cup of shredded coconut?
1 US cup of shredded coconut weighs 93 g, as measured by the USDA (1 cup (sweetened, shredded)). A tablespoon weighs 5.8 g.
How do I convert grams of shredded coconut to cups?
Divide the grams by 93. For example, 100 g of shredded coconut is 1.08 cups, about 1 cup + 1 tbsp.
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.
