Pounds to Cups Converter
Convert pounds to cups for any ingredient, using real densities rather than a single average — flour, sugar, butter and honey all fill a cup differently.
Why the ingredient matters
This conversion crosses between volume and weight, so it depends on density. A US cup of all-purpose flour is 125 g; the same cup holds 200 g of granulated sugar and 340 g of honey. Pick the ingredient above and the factor changes with it.
