140 Grams to Cups
What 140 g looks like for every common baking ingredient
140 grams is 1⅛ cups of all-purpose flour, ⅔ cup of granulated sugar, or ⅝ cup of butter, measured in US cups.
There is no single answer to how many cups 140 grams is — it depends entirely on what you are measuring, because grams weigh and cups fill.
It also depends on whose cup you mean. A US cup is 236.6 ml; the metric cup used in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada is 250 ml, so it holds about 5.7% more. Both columns are given below.
