Margarine is a plant-oil spread designed as a butter replacement, made from vegetable oils that are partially solidified for spreading and baking. One metric cup (250 ml) of block margarine weighs around 235 grams or 8.29 ounces, very close to butter at 227 grams. When a recipe calls for margarine in cups but you only have scales, converting by weight removes the guesswork in cakes, pastry, and frostings.

Margarine is sold in blocks by weight, tubs by volume, and sticks in the US. Recipes mix all three, so converting between cups, grams, and tablespoons cuts the guesswork.

  • baking margarine
  • block margarine

Butter is dairy fat with a richer flavour than margarine, though both share a similar fat-to-water ratio and weigh almost the same per cup (227 g vs 235 g). Swap 1:1 by volume in cakes, cookies, and pastry; butter gives a deeper flavour and a slightly firmer set. See our Butter converter.

Shortening is 100% solid fat with no water, while margarine carries around 15 to 20% water. They are close in weight (205 g vs 235 g per cup), but shortening produces a flakier, drier crumb in pastry; margarine bakes closer to butter. See our Shortening converter.

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