How Gram to Teaspoon Powder Calculator Works

1

Enter powder weight in grams

Type the gram amount of your powdered ingredient from a recipe or label.

2

Select your specific powder

Choose from cocoa powder, cornstarch, matcha, cinnamon, baking powder, and other powders. Each has a unique density.

3

Get your teaspoon measurement

The calculator uses the selected powder's density to produce an accurate teaspoon result in real time.

Powdered ingredients vary widely in density — from cocoa powder (0.52 g/mL) to baking soda (1.10 g/mL). Always select the correct powder for accurate results. If your specific powder is not listed, use the "Custom Density" option.

Gram to Teaspoon Powder Calculator Formula

teaspoons = grams ÷ (density × 4.92892)

Density varies per powder (see dropdown). 4.92892 is the volume of one US teaspoon in milliliters.

Reverse formula: grams = teaspoons × density × 4.92892

Example: 10 g of cocoa powder

1 Density of cocoa powder = 0.52 g/mL
2 tsp = 10 ÷ (0.52 × 4.92892)
3 tsp = 10 ÷ 2.56304
4 tsp ≈ 3.90
5 10 grams of cocoa powder ≈ 3.90 teaspoons
