Why density matters
Many recipes mix weight and volume units, and that is where mistakes happen. A gram is always a gram, but a cup can hold very different weights depending on what you measure: 125 g of flour, 200 g of sugar and 340 g of honey all fill one cup. For consistent results — especially in baking — weighing in grams is the most reliable approach.
If you only have cups and spoons, always fill them the same way — spooning and levelling for dry ingredients, and reading at eye level for liquids — so your measurements are repeatable.
Frequently asked questions
Is converting teaspoons to millilitres the same for every ingredient?
Yes — the relationship between teaspoons and millilitres is the same for any ingredient, because both are units of the same type.
Why is weighing more accurate?
Because volume depends on how you fill the cup, while weight in grams is always the same. For delicate baking, a scale saves a lot of failed batches.
