Because cup and tablespoon span volume and weight, this page uses all-purpose flour density (~125g per US cup). Other ingredients will convert differently.
Tip: for baking, weighing in grams is more consistent than cups. Convert once, then scale the recipe up or down without re-measuring every spoon.
