SwitchExplanation
Use this page when a recipe gives cake flour in cups and you need a repeatable gram target. The converter keeps the assumption explicit: 1 level US cup of cake flour = 120 grams.
That makes recipe scaling easier without switching between inconsistent cup charts. The page stays anchored to the US cup standard (236.588 mL). Cake Flour can vary with milling, aeration, and scoop style, so the page keeps one explicit basis instead of mixing spooned, packed, and sifted outcomes.
