Bread flour is high-protein wheat flour (around 12 to 14%) milled from hard wheat, giving the strong gluten that yeasted bakes need for chew and lift. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 150 grams or 5.29 ounces. When a recipe calls for bread flour in cups but you only have scales, converting by weight delivers the pull and texture of a proper loaf or pizza base.

Bread flour is sold in 1 kg or 1.5 kg bags, while recipes mix cups, grams, and tablespoons. Weighing in grams keeps hydration steady, which matters more in yeasted dough than almost any other bake.

  • high-gluten flour

Plain flour carries less protein than bread flour (around 10 to 12% vs 12 to 14%), so it gives a softer, less chewy crumb. They are close in weight (140 g vs 150 g per cup); swap 1:1 by volume in sandwich loaves and pizza for a tender, less elastic result. See plain flour in grams.

Cake flour is low-protein and bread flour is high-protein, so they sit at opposite ends of the wheat-flour spectrum. They differ by cup (130 g vs 150 g); they are not a straight swap, but blending half cake and half bread flour gives roughly the protein of plain flour. See cake flour in grams.

Self-raising flour is plain flour with baking powder blended in, so it is lower in protein than bread flour (around 10 to 12% vs 12 to 14%) and lighter per cup (140 g vs 150 g). Reach for bread flour when a bake needs chew and structure, self-raising when it needs an even rise. See self raising flour in grams.
