Frequently Asked Questions
How many grams is a cup of shredded cheese?
1 cup of loosely packed shredded cheddar is 113 grams.
What should I know about measuring shredded cheese?
This conversion is for loosely packed shredded cheddar, and how loosely or tightly shredded cheese is packed into the cup makes a real difference — pre-shredded bagged cheese is usually looser than cheese you shred yourself, which packs down more.
Should I use a kitchen scale instead of cups?
For baking specifically, yes if precision matters — weight doesn't vary with how tightly an ingredient is packed, so it's more consistent than volume measurement. This converter helps translate a cup-based recipe to weight, or a weight-based recipe back to cups.
