250 Grams of Cocoa Powder to Cups
250 grams of cocoa powder equals 3 cups (2.98 US cups), based on 84 g per cup (spoon-and-level method). In the kitchen, measure 3 cups. For best results, weigh cocoa powder with a scale — cup measurements vary with how the cup is filled.

How to measure 250 g of cocoa powder without a scale
Cocoa powder clumps and compresses easily, so spoon it into the cup and level — never pack it. A level spooned cup is 84 g. If a recipe says "sifted cocoa," sift after measuring unless it says otherwise.
