Panmetry’s own method
We check official and independent data, examine meaningful discrepancies and establish the values used for conversion.
Your ingredient and your measure
The conversion accounts for the ingredient’s form and the capacity of your cup, glass or spoon.
Both directions, one tool
Grams to cups, spoons to grams and back again — switch direction without opening another calculator.
Precision starts with the details. And with Panmetry’s own method.
We cross-check official and independent data, examine meaningful discrepancies in detail and account for what affects the conversion:the type of ingredient, its form and your chosen kitchen measure.
Behind every Panmetry answer is a check of the data, not a blindly copied table. You get a result for your chosen ingredient and measure without having to compare reference guides yourself.
Cocoa powder is not drinking chocolate
Select unsweetened cocoa for pure cocoa powder. Check the ingredient list: a drinking-chocolate mix containing sugar or other ingredients is a different product.
Measure cocoa without pressing it down
Break up lumps before filling the measure and level the surface. Keep the same measuring approach throughout the recipe.

Questions about ingredient conversion
Will the conversion decide which cocoa type suits my recipe?
No. It converts the selected product’s quantity and does not choose a replacement based on acidity or baking performance.
Can I use a sweetened chocolate drink mix?
Choose unsweetened cocoa powder for this calculation. A drink mix contains sugar and other ingredients, so it is a different product.
