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). It 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.

Chocolate chips are sweetened solid drops that stay whole when baked, unlike fine, bitter cocoa powder. They pack heavier (180 g vs 100 g per cup), so swap by weight and expect added sugar and melty texture rather than dry chocolate flavour. See our Chocolate Chips converter.

No scale? No worries. The tool below gives a good estimate, but for exact bakes a digital kitchen scale is worth it.
