The kitchen smells great, you’re in the groove… and then comes “600 grams.” Pause. “Hmm. How many cups am I supposed to use here?”
It’s not a straightforward swap because ingredients vary so much. Flour is fluffy, sugar is dense, and butter? Let’s just say it has its quirks.
How many cups equal 600 grams depends on the density of the ingredient.
To make your life easier, we’ve created this guide, which includes a fast converter, printable charts, and practical tips to help you nail those measurements every time.

Converting 600 grams to cups in seconds
You’re making baklava with walnuts, and the recipe calls for cups. But you’re staring at 600 grams of walnuts and wondering—how many cups is that, exactly?
At first, it seems like you could just scoop and be done. But with walnuts, it’s not quite that simple.
Here’s why: walnuts come in all shapes and sizes. Sometimes, they’re whole halves with lots of air pockets between them; sometimes, they’re roughly chopped, and other times, they’re finely ground. Whole walnut halves are bulky and don’t sit tightly in a measuring cup, while chopped walnuts pack together more snugly and take up less space.
This is where density comes into play. In plain language, it’s about how heavy something is compared to the space it occupies. A cup of whole walnuts, with all the gaps between them, weighs less than a cup of small, chopped pieces packed tightly together.
Additionally, raw walnuts are slightly heavier than roasted ones because they contain more natural oils. That’s another detail that can make a small difference in your measurements.
However, we can still calculate a reliable estimate using the average weight of whole walnut halves.
Here’s how you do it:
1. You’ve got 600 grams of walnuts.
2. One cup of whole walnut halves typically weighs approximately 100 grams.
The formula is:
Cups = weight in grams ÷ grams per cup
3. Now let’s do the math:
600 ÷ 100 = 6 cups
As you can see, 600 grams of whole walnuts yield approximately 6 cups.
If your walnuts are chopped into smaller pieces or ground, keep in mind that they’ll settle more tightly into the cup so that the same weight will fill less space (and fewer cups).

600 grams to cups FAQs
Flour measurement is crucial. If you spoon and level it, 600 grams is about 4 and ¾ cups. In contrast, scooping from the bag can pack it down, resulting in roughly 4 and ½ cups. Humidity can also affect flour weight, as it absorbs moisture from the air.
The variety of rice influences the result. Long-grain white rice yields approximately 3 and 1/8 cups for 600 grams, while short-grain or arborio rice, which is slightly plumper, measures closer to 3 and ¼ cups. Cooked rice expands, and 600 grams of cooked rice fills approximately 8 cups, depending on how much water it absorbed.
The fat content and texture of cream cheese affect its volume. Standard full-fat cream cheese is denser, so 600 grams equals roughly 2 and 2/3 cups. Whipped cream cheese incorporates air and would fill closer to 3 cups for the same weight. Reduced-fat versions may also have slightly more moisture, which affects the amount they pack into a cup.
The volume depends on how apples are prepared. When chopped, 600 grams of apples equals about 4 and ½ cups. Grated apples settle more tightly, bringing the measurement closer to 5 cups. Apple variety matters too—juicy apples like Honeycrisp or Fuji tend to weigh more per cup than firmer types like Granny Smith.
It depends on whether the powdered sugar is sifted or packed. Unsifted, 600 grams measures about 5 and ¼ cups, but once sifted, it fluffs up with air and can fill nearly 6 cups. How it’s stored also makes a difference—if the sugar has been sitting in a bag and compacted, it will take up less space in the cup.
It depends on the form of chocolate. For chips, 600 grams is around 3 and ½ cups. Chopped chocolate bars often settle differently and may measure closer to 4 cups. If it’s grated finely, it becomes fluffier and the same weight could fill almost 5 cups.
It varies with the shape of the pasta. Smaller types like penne or macaroni come to about 7 and ¼ cups for 600 grams, while long pasta like spaghetti or linguine packs tighter and measures closer to 6 and ¾ cups. Once cooked, pasta expands and the same weight fills much more space.
The consistency of the jam makes a difference. Smooth plum jam measures about 2 and ¼ cups for 600 grams. If the jam contains whole or chunky pieces of fruit, it’s less dense and might take up slightly more room in the cup.
It depends on the type and the temperature of the Nutella. When room temperature and soft, 600 grams comes to just over 2 cups. If it’s slightly warmed, it settles more densely and can measure closer to 2 cups even.
This depends on how thick or chunky the sauce is. Smooth tomato sauces are denser and measure about 2 and ½ cups for 600 grams. A rustic sauce with bits of tomato and vegetables may mound higher and take up a little more room in the cup.
This can vary depending on whether the peas are raw, frozen, or cooked. Fresh or frozen peas measure roughly 4 cups for 600 grams. Cooked peas lose water and shrink slightly, so the same weight would measure closer to 3 and ½ cups.
The form of the cream makes all the difference. As a liquid, 600 grams is approximately 2 1/2 cups. After whipping, it becomes airy and expands dramatically, filling nearly 5 cups. The fat content also matters—heavier creams whip up more than light ones.
