60 Grams to Cups
60 grams is ½ cup of all-purpose flour, ⅓ cup of granulated sugar, or ¼ cup of butter — grams measure weight, cups measure volume, so the answer always depends on the ingredient's density. Find yours in the table below; every density is verified against King Arthur and USDA data.
60 g is also 2.1 oz by weight. For water and thin liquids, 60 g is simply 60 ml.
60 grams to cups, by ingredient
| Ingredient | Cups | Decimal | Measure it as |
|---|---|---|---|
| all-purpose flour | ½ cup | 0.5 | 8 tbsp |
| granulated sugar | ⅓ cup | 0.3 | 5 tbsp |
| powdered sugar | ½ cup | 0.5 | 8 tbsp |
| brown sugar (packed) | ¼ cup | 0.28 | 5 tbsp |
| honey | ⅛ cup | 0.18 | 3 tbsp |
| butter | ¼ cup | 0.26 | 4 tbsp |
| milk (whole) | ¼ cup | 0.24 | 4 tbsp |
| uncooked white rice | ⅓ cup | 0.32 | 5 tbsp |
| rolled oats | ⅔ cup | 0.67 | 11 tbsp |
| chocolate chips | ⅓ cup | 0.35 | 6 tbsp |
| cocoa powder | ¾ cup | 0.71 | 11 tbsp |
| water | ¼ cup | 0.25 | 4 tbsp |
Why the ingredient changes the answer
A US cup is a fixed volume (about 237 ml), but a cup of flour weighs 120 g while a cup of honey weighs 340 g — density is the whole game. That's also why there's no single "grams to cups" conversion factor, and why our converter asks for the ingredient first.

250 g All-purpose flour = 2 ⅛ cups
Exactly 2.08 cups — or measure 2 cups + 1 tbsp.
