100 Grams to Cups
100 grams is ¾ cup + 1 tbsp of all-purpose flour, ½ cup of granulated sugar or about ⅓ cup + 1.5 tbsp of butter. The exact answer depends on the ingredient.
Tip: Spoon flour into the cup and level it with a knife. Scooping straight from the bag packs in up to 30 g extra.
100 grams converts to ¾ cup + 1 tbsp of all-purpose flour (125 g per cup), ½ cup of granulated sugar (200 g per cup), about ⅓ cup + 1.5 tbsp of butter (227 g per cup), ⅓ cup + 2 tbsp of packed brown sugar and about ⅓ cup + 1 tbsp of milk. For any other ingredient, divide 100 by its weight per cup.
