Weight and Measurement Substitutions

If you  are like me, math is not your strongest subject, while writing and creative subjects are. Weight and Measurement substitutions can be hard to figure out, but I have a solution for you. It will be ideal to make a cute weight and measurement substitution chart to hang in your kitchen for easy access. 

Finding a chalk board surface and using fabric as the border would be a nice way to incorporate the chart into your kitchen. Below is a list of the most commonly used weight and measurement substitutions. I hope that this helps you to simplify the science of baking a little more.

3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon                                   
4 tablespoons = 1/4 cup                                             
5 1/3 tablespoons = 1/3 cup                                
8 tablespoons = 1/2 cup                                        
10 2/3 tablespoons = 2/3 cup                               
12 tablespoons = 3/4 cup                                      
16 tablespoons = 1 cup                                         
1 ounce = 28.35 grams                                          
1 gram = 0.035 ounces      

 1 cup = 8 fluid ounces 
 1 cup = 1/2 pint 
 2 cups = 1 pint 
 4 cups = 1 quart
 4 quarts = 1 gallon
 8 quarts = 1 peck
 4 pecks = 1 bushel
 1 quart = 946.4 milliliters
 1 liter = 1.06 quarts
