Baking Conversion Calculator

Convert butter sticks to cups and grams, egg sizes by weight, and oven temperatures between F, C, and Gas Mark.

1. Select the conversion type - butter measurements, egg size substitutions, or oven temperatures. 2. For butter, enter the amount in sticks, cups, tablespoons, grams, or ounces to see all equivalents. 3. For eggs, choose the recipe egg size and the egg size you have to see the correct quantity substitution. 4. For oven temperatures, enter a value in Fahrenheit, Celsius, or Gas Mark to convert between all three. 5. Copy the conversion results you need directly into your recipe notes.

About This Tool

Baking requires precision, and ingredient measurements vary widely between countries and recipe sources. Our Baking Conversion Calculator handles the three most common pain points in baking: butter measurement conversions, egg size substitutions by weight, and oven temperature conversions between Fahrenheit, Celsius, and Gas Mark. All in one convenient tool built specifically for bakers.

The butter converter translates between US sticks, cups, tablespoons, grams, and ounces - covering how recipes are written in America, Europe, and beyond. The egg converter helps when your recipe calls for large eggs but you only have medium or extra-large, providing exact weight equivalents so your ratios stay correct. The oven temperature section converts between Fahrenheit, Celsius, and the Gas Mark system used in many British recipes.

Whether you are following an American recipe that measures butter in sticks, a French recipe with butter in grams, or a British recipe with Gas Mark temperatures, this calculator bridges the gap. It is an essential reference for any baker who uses recipes from different sources or lives in a country that uses a different measurement system than the recipe author.

Frequently Asked Questions

One US stick of butter weighs 113 grams (4 ounces). A stick is also equal to half a cup or 8 tablespoons. Two sticks make one cup (226 grams), and four sticks make one pound (452 grams). These conversions are essential for adapting American recipes.
A large egg (the standard in most recipes) weighs about 50 grams without the shell. Medium eggs weigh about 44 grams and extra-large about 56 grams. For recipes calling for 3 large eggs (150g total), you could use 3-4 medium eggs or 2-3 extra-large eggs, aiming to match the total weight.
Gas Mark is an oven temperature scale used primarily in the UK and some Commonwealth countries. Gas Mark 1 is 275F (135C) and each mark adds about 25F (14C). Common conversions: Gas Mark 4 is 350F (180C), Gas Mark 6 is 400F (200C), and Gas Mark 8 is 450F (230C).
Baking is a science where ingredients interact through precise chemical reactions. Too much flour makes baked goods dense, too little fat affects texture, and wrong oven temperatures cause under or over-browning. Unlike cooking, you cannot easily adjust baking recipes by taste once they are in the oven.
Multiply the Celsius temperature by 9/5 and add 32. For example, 180C becomes (180 x 9/5) + 32 = 356F, which rounds to 350F. Common baking temperatures: 150C is 300F, 180C is 350F, 190C is 375F, 200C is 400F, and 220C is 425F.
