SwitchExplanation
Use this page when a recipe gives dark chocolate in cups and you need a repeatable gram target. The converter keeps the assumption explicit: 1 level US cup of dark chocolate = 150 grams.
That makes recipe scaling easier without switching between inconsistent cup charts. The page stays anchored to the US cup standard (236.588 mL). Dark Chocolate can vary with fragment size and how the pieces settle in the cup, so the page keeps one explicit basis instead of mixing chopped, crushed, or uneven fills.
