Butter Grams to Cups Converter
Convert butter grams to US cups and back using 227 grams per cup.
Translate butter weights and US cup measures
Butter is sold by grams in many countries and by sticks or cup fractions in American recipes. This converter uses 227 grams for one US cup, the common rounded mass of two standard US sticks. It keeps the ingredient context explicit rather than treating every food as having the same density.
With the default input, 227 grams of butter converts to 1 US cup. Reversing direction converts 1 cup back to 227 grams. Package labels can show 226.8 grams for the exact two-stick mass, so the one-gram rounding reflects the stated kitchen convention.

The conversion happens locally and no recipe quantity leaves your browser. It is suitable for ordinary baking adaptation, but source packaging and recipe standards take priority when they specify an exact weight. A scale remains the most direct way to portion butter accurately.
