Butter Conversion — Sticks, Cups, Tablespoons & Grams
~30 seconds
Enter an amount of butter and pick the units to convert between. This uses the US stick convention: 1 stick = ½ cup = 8 tablespoons = 4 oz = 113 g. Sticks are a US-only unit — non-US butter has no standard stick.

Assumptions & Conventions
- US stick convention
- Uses the US package convention: 1 stick = ½ cup = 8 tbsp = 4 oz = 113 g; the stick is a US-only unit with no international standard.
- Grams derived from stored relationships
- Gram outputs come from the stored ounce-to-gram relationship (4 oz × 28.3495 ≈ 113 g), not a separately measured density.
