Frequently asked questions
How many grams is 2 1/2 cups of molasses?
2 1/2 cups of molasses is 843 grams, based on 337 g per level US cup.
Is it different with a UK or Australian cup?
Slightly. UK, Australian and New Zealand recipes use a 250 ml metric cup, which is about 6% bigger than a US cup (236.6 ml). Using a metric cup, 2 1/2 cups of molasses would be 890 g.
Should I weigh molasses or measure it by volume?
Sugar is fairly consistent by volume, but sticky syrups cling to the cup – grease it first so you get the full amount out. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
