10 Grams of Butter to Cups
10 grams of butter equals 0 cups (0.04 US cups), based on 227 g per cup (level cup). In the kitchen, measure 1 tbsp. For best results, weigh butter with a scale — cup measurements vary with how the cup is filled.
Amounts this small are spoon territory — a ±5 g error is a large share of 10 g, so use measuring spoons or a scale rather than a cup.

How to measure 10 g of butter without a scale
In the US, butter is easiest to measure by the wrapper: one stick is ½ cup = 8 tbsp = 113 g, and the wrapper is printed with tablespoon marks. For amounts that aren’t clean stick fractions, weigh it — cutting soft butter into a measuring cup traps air pockets.

Convert another amount
250 g Butter = 1 ⅛ cups
