Grams to Tablespoons Converter

Pick the ingredient, type grams, get tablespoons. Each ingredient uses its real density, not a one-size-fits-all rule.

Density: 0.53 g/ml. Powders and flours are approximate — measurements vary ±20% with sifting and packing.

How it works

One US tablespoon = 14.79 ml. Tablespoons = grams ÷ density (g/ml) ÷ 14.79. Example: 30g of sugar (density 0.85) = 30 ÷ 0.85 ÷ 14.79 ≈ 2.4 tablespoons.
