About the Cooking Measurement Converter
What is the Cooking Measurement Converter?
A cooking measurement converter changes recipe volumes between cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, fluid ounces and metric millilitres.
Why use this calculator?
Recipes from different countries use different measures, and US and imperial spoon and cup sizes are not identical, so baking precision depends on correct conversion.
How to use it
- Enter the amount from your recipe.
- Choose the unit the recipe uses.
- Choose the unit you want and read the result.
Formula
1 US cup = 16 US tablespoons = 48 US teaspoons = 8 US fluid ounces ≈ 236.6 mL.
US and imperial (UK) cooking units differ slightly; choose the matching system for exact results.
