  • These figures use the metric cup (250 ml), so 1 cup is 150 g. A US cup is slightly smaller at 240 ml and holds about 144 g.
  • Cup sizes are not standard worldwide, so the same cup of an ingredient can weigh more or less depending on the country. What is a cup measurement

Gelatin is an unflavoured protein powder made from collagen, used to set mousses, panna cotta, jellies, and marshmallows. One metric cup (250 ml) of powdered gelatin weighs around 150 grams or 5.29 ounces. Most recipes call for it by the packet (one packet = 7 g = about 2.3 tsp) or by the tablespoon, where 1 tbsp weighs about 9 grams.

Too little gelatin and a mousse won't hold its shape; too much and the texture turns rubbery. Measuring by weight is far more reliable than scooping, which packs the powder differently each time.
