When a recipe calls for bocconcini by volume, measuring by grams gives a more reliable result than filling a measuring cup, as the balls pack differently depending on their size.

Bocconcini are sold by weight in most delis and supermarkets, so knowing the gram-to-cup conversion helps you buy the right amount for salads, pizzas, and baked dishes without waste.

  • bocconcini cheese

Mozzarella and bocconcini are the same cheese in different forms: bocconcini are small fresh balls, while shredded mozzarella is a packaged, shredded version. Shredded mozzarella (113 g per cup) is lighter than bocconcini (230 g per cup), as fresh balls retain more moisture. See our Mozzarella converter.
