Small quantities in baking are often given in teaspoons but need converting to grams for precise measurement.
How it works
A US cup is exactly 48 teaspoons, so dividing the ingredient’s grams-per-cup density by 48 gives grams per teaspoon; multiplying by the entered teaspoons gives the total weight.

Frequently asked questions
Is this the reverse of the site’s grams-to-tsp calculator?
Yes — same ingredient density table, just starting from the opposite unit for the “teaspoons to grams” search direction.
Why does a teaspoon of honey weigh more than a teaspoon of flour?
Because a teaspoon is a fixed volume, and honey is a much denser substance, packing more mass into the same small volume.
What’s this most useful for?
Small-quantity ingredients like spices, baking powder, or salt, where precision matters but a kitchen scale reading might not be practical.
