1 cup is a different gram weight for each ingredient. For example, 1 cup all-purpose flour is 125g, while 1 cup granulated sugar is 200g.

A cup is a volume measure. Grams measure weight. Dense ingredients weigh more per cup than light or aerated ingredients.

Grams are more accurate. If a recipe gives cups, use the ingredient-specific chart and a consistent measuring method such as Spoon & Level.
