Kiwi converter: whole kiwis, cups, grams

Kiwi converter

A recipe says '1 cup sliced kiwi' or '3 kiwis' but they range from small to large. A medium kiwi is about 76 g whole, so the count shifts as size changes. This converter moves between whole kiwis, sliced cups, grams, and ounces.

A small kiwi is 60 g and a large one 100 g, so 'three kiwis' can range from under 200 g to 300 g of fruit. Pick the right size below to keep pavlova, fruit salad, and smoothies on target.
