One cup, side by side
What does “spooned and levelled” mean for all-purpose flour?
King Arthur Baking states a method alongside the number: flour spooned into the cup and levelled off with a straight edge, not scooped straight out of the bag. That the chart bothers to say so is the point — 120 g is the weight of a cup filled that particular way, and a cup filled another way is a different weight. Weighing removes the question entirely, which is why the gram figure is the one worth keeping.

Frequently asked questions
How many ml is 1 cup of All-purpose flour?
1 cup of All-purpose flour is 236.6 ml. Cups, millilitres, tablespoons and teaspoons all measure volume, so this figure is the same whatever is in the cup — a US cup is 236.588 ml, 16 tablespoons and 48 teaspoons by definition. What the ingredient changes is the weight: a cup of All-purpose flour is 120 g.
How many cups is 250 ml of All-purpose flour?
250 ml of All-purpose flour is 1.06 cups. It is the same conversion read backwards, so this page and its reverse always agree.
Is one millilitre of All-purpose flour the same as one gram?
No — that holds for water alone. All-purpose flour works out at 0.507 g/ml, so 100 ml of it weighs 50.72 g rather than 100 g. A converter that assumes a millilitre is a gram is really only telling you about water.
Where does dishscale's figure for All-purpose flour come from?
One US cup of All-purpose flour is 120 g. The dataset records that as: “King Arthur Baking”. That is the King Arthur Baking ingredient weight chart. Every ingredient on the site carries the reference its weight came from, so any number here can be checked — and corrected if the source disagrees.
