Cornstarch
Ounce to Gram
Understanding Cornstarch Conversions
The Math Behind This Conversion
To convert 1 ounces of cornstarch to grams, multiply by 28.3495 (the number of grams per ounce). So 1oz × 28.3495 = 28.3g.
Measurement Tip
For best results when measuring cornstarch, use a kitchen scale. The density of 0.54 g/ml is based on standard measurement conditions, but actual results may vary based on how the ingredient is handled and stored.
About Our Data
The density value of 0.54 g/ml for cornstarch is from the USDA FoodData Central database (ID: 169698). This measurement was taken with cornstarch spooned into the measuring cup and leveled.
Frequently Asked Questions
1 ounce of cornstarch weighs approximately 28 gram. This is based on a density of 0.54 g/ml for cornstarch.
For the most accurate measurement of cornstarch, use a kitchen scale. Volume measurements can vary based on how the ingredient is packed.
Weighing cornstarch gives more consistent results than volume measurements. A cup of cornstarch can vary by 10-20% depending on how it's measured (spooned vs scooped). Professional bakers always weigh ingredients for this reason.
Cornstarch has a density of 0.54 g/ml, meaning each milliliter weighs 0.54 grams. Different ingredients have different densities—for example, flour is lighter than sugar—which is why each needs its own conversion factor.
