UK recipes mix metric (grams) and imperial (ounces/pounds) — older books use oz, modern ones use g. This tool converts between grams, kilograms, ounces, and pounds so you never get stuck mid-recipe.
Frequently asked questions
How many grams in an ounce?
1 ounce = 28.35 grams. So 4 oz ≈ 113 g. UK recipes often round to 25 g or 30 g per ounce for simplicity, but this converter uses the exact factor (28.3495).
Why do UK recipes use both grams and ounces?
Older UK recipes (pre-metric, before ~1970s) use ounces and pounds; modern recipes use grams. Many British bakers still own both scales, so conversions are constantly needed.
