Butter Converter

Convert butter between US sticks, cups, tablespoons, teaspoons, grams and ounces in one step, from any unit you have.

How this is calculated

Every conversion here follows from how butter is packaged in the United States. A stick is a quarter of a pound, which is 4 ounces, and the pound is defined as exactly 453.59237 grams, so a stick is 113.4 grams. A stick is also 8 tablespoons, which is half a US cup, and a tablespoon is 3 teaspoons.

Your amount is converted to sticks first and then to each of the other units, so the six answers always agree with one another. Because the definitions are fixed, there is no table of measured values to disagree with.

Butter sold in blocks outside the United States, for example 250 gram packs, is not divided into sticks, but the gram and ounce answers still apply to it.

Limits

US stick sizes (a quarter-pound each). Amounts up to 100000 of the chosen unit. Melted or whipped butter measures differently by volume, so weigh it when precision matters.
