Explanation

Use 338 g per US cup as the reference when converting molasses from cups to grams.

Recipe scaling stays tied to the US cup standard (236.588 mL) rather than to mixed cup charts. Molasses can shift slightly with temperature and sugar concentration, so the page keeps one fixed cup basis for repeatable kitchen use.

Method & Cup Basis

  • Method basis: cup-to-weight conversion anchored to the US customary cup (≈236.6 mL).
  • Applied formula: grams = cups × 338.
  • Consistency rule: snapshot, calculator, FAQ, and table use the same ingredient-specific basis.
