Grams to ML Converter
How many milliliters is a gram? For water, 1 gram is 1 milliliter — but that only holds for water. Flour, sugar, oil, and milk each have their own density, so pick your ingredient below for an accurate grams-to-ml conversion.
100 grams to milliliters by Ingredient
The same gram of each ingredient converts to a different number of milliliters, because their densities differ:
| Ingredient | 100 g | Grams per cup |
|---|---|---|
| All-Purpose Flour | 189 ml | 125g |
| Almond Flour | 246 ml | 96g |
| Granulated Sugar | 118 ml | 200g |
| Brown Sugar (Packed) | 108 ml | 220g |
| Powdered Sugar | 197 ml | 120g |
| Honey | 70 ml | 340g |
| Butter | 104 ml | 227g |
| Vegetable Oil | 109 ml | 218g |
| Olive Oil | 110 ml | 216g |
| Milk | 97 ml | 245g |
| Heavy Cream | 99 ml | 238g |
| Sour Cream | 98 ml | 242g |
| Cream Cheese | 102 ml | 232g |
| Rice (Uncooked) | 128 ml | 185g |

Why Grams to ML Depends on the Ingredient
Grams measure weight and milliliters measure volume. They match one-to-one only for water, whose density is almost exactly 1 g/ml. A lighter ingredient like flour takes up more volume per gram, so 100g of flour is closer to 189ml.
This converter uses each ingredient’s real density (its grams per cup against the 236.6ml in a US cup) to give a volume that actually matches the weight — not the water-only shortcut.
