Conversion guides and density charts

Practical ingredient charts, cooking examples and clear explanations of volume-to-mass calculations.

Butter mL to Grams: Melted vs Soft Butter

Butter is denser or lighter depending on its state. A 100 mL measure of melted butter is about 91 g, while soft butter depends on how firmly it is packed.

Cocoa Powder mL to Grams Conversion Chart

100 mL of loosely spooned cocoa powder is approximately 44 g. The weight changes noticeably when you press the powder into the measure.

Flour mL to Grams: All-Purpose and Other Flours

100 mL of all-purpose flour weighs about 52.9 g using a loose, level measure. Different flour types and scooping methods produce different numbers.

Honey mL to Grams: Conversion Table

100 mL of honey weighs about 142 g using a representative density of 1.42 g/mL. Honey is significantly heavier than water at the same volume.

Cream mL to Grams: Heavy and Light Cream

100 mL of heavy cream is about 99 g. Light cream and half-and-half can be slightly heavier depending on their composition.

Milk mL to Grams: Whole and Skim Milk

100 mL of milk weighs around 103 g. Whole, low-fat and skim milk are all close to this practical kitchen value.

Rice mL to Grams: Uncooked vs Cooked

100 mL of uncooked white rice weighs about 78 g. Cooked rice contains absorbed water, so the same cup volume has a different weight.

Yogurt mL to Grams: Plain and Greek

100 mL of plain yogurt is around 104 g; Greek yogurt is commonly near 105 g. Both vary by brand and thickness.

Is 1 mL the Same as 1 Gram?

One mL is approximately one gram only for water around typical kitchen temperatures. Different substances have different densities.

How to Convert mL to Grams Correctly

Multiply mL by the ingredient density in g/mL to obtain mass in grams. Example: 150 mL of milk × 1.03 = 154.5 g.
