3/4 cup in Grams

3/4 cup (0.75 cups) is about 94 g of flour, 150 g of sugar and 170 g of butter. Three quarters of a cup is a common measure for sugar, milk and melted butter in cakes and batters. Because it is three quarters of a full cup, its weight is three quarters of the one-cup figure, so three quarters of a cup of flour is about 94 grams and of sugar about 150 grams.

Quick answer: three quarters of a cup, written 0.75 cups in decimal form, is 180 ml. In grams it is about 94 g of flour, 150 g of sugar, 170 g of butter and 180 g of water. Milk is close to 183 g.

3/4 cup (0.75 cups) in grams for every ingredient

A cup is a measure of volume, so three quarters of a cup weighs a different amount for each ingredient depending on how dense it is. The table lists 3/4 cup in grams and ounces for 45 common baking ingredients. Tap any ingredient for its full cup to gram table and a guide to measuring it well.

Why three quarters of a cup is not a single weight

The reason 3/4 cup of flour and 3/4 cup of honey weigh nothing alike is density. Flour is light and full of air, so three quarters of a cup of it is only about 94 grams. Honey is one of the densest things in the kitchen, so the same three quarters of a cup weighs far more. To turn a volume like three quarters of a cupinto grams you multiply by the ingredient's density in grams per cup, which is exactly what the table above does for you.

For everyday cooking, measuring three quarters of a cup with a measuring cup is perfectly fine. For baking, where the ratio of flour to sugar to fat decides whether a cake is tender or dense, weighing to the gram is far more reliable. A simple digital scale plus the figures here takes the guesswork out of it. Need a different amount? Try the cups to grams converter, or pick another common measure below.

Frequently asked questions

How many grams is 3/4 cup?

There is no single answer, because a cup measures volume and different ingredients have different densities. Three quarters of a cup of flour is about 94 grams, of sugar about 150 grams, of butter about 170 grams and of water about 180 grams. The full table above lists 3/4 cup in grams for 45 ingredients.

How many grams is 0.75 cups?

0.75 cups is the decimal way of writing 3/4 cup, so the two are the same measure and the same page answers both. 0.75 cups is 180 ml, and in grams it is about 94 g of flour, 150 g of sugar, 170 g of butter and 180 g of water. Because a cup measures volume, the weight of 0.75 cups changes with the ingredient, so read the exact figure from the table above.

How many grams is 3/4 cup of flour?

Three quarters of a cup of all-purpose flour is about 94 grams when spooned and levelled. Scooping straight from the bag packs in extra flour, so weighing is the reliable way to hit 94 grams.

How many grams is 3/4 cup of sugar?

Three quarters of a cup of granulated white sugar is about 150 grams. Sugar is dense and does not compress much, so a levelled cup and a scooped cup come out close.

How many grams is 3/4 cup of butter?

Three quarters of a cup of butter is about 170 grams. A full US cup of butter is 227 grams, which is two sticks or half a pound, so 3/4 cup scales directly from that.

Is 3/4 cup the same in US and metric cups?

This page uses US cups, where one cup is 240 millilitres, so 3/4 cup is 180 millilitres. A metric cup is 250 millilitres, so the same fraction holds a little more. Converting to grams removes the difference entirely.
