Convert Cocoa Powder measurements

Cocoa Powder Measurement Converter

Use the tool below to convert cocoa powder from the measurements in your recipe to the measurements that you need.

Cocoa powder is a concentrated, unsweetened powder made from roasted cocoa beans with most of the cocoa butter removed. It comes in two main varieties — natural (acidic, lighter in colour) and Dutch-process (alkalised, darker and milder) — and is used in cakes, brownies, frostings, and hot chocolate. One metric cup of unsifted cocoa powder weighs approximately 100 grams.

Cocoa powder is very light and can compact significantly when scooped, so measuring by weight gives far more consistent results than measuring by volume. This page helps you convert cocoa powder between grams, cups, tablespoons, and more so your recipes turn out reliably every time.
