Chocolate Chunks — Grams & Cups Converter
1 cup of chocolate chunks weighs about 170 g. So 100 g ≈ 5/8 cup, 200 g ≈ 1 1/8 cups, and 300 g ≈ 1 3/4 cups. Convert any amount between grams, cups, ounces, tablespoons and millilitres with the calculator below.
💡 Tip: Chocolate chunks are bigger than chips and melt into pools rather than holding shape. By weight they're about 170 g per cup, like chips.

Chocolate chunks vs chips
Chocolate chunks weigh about 170 g per cup — the same as chips — so they swap 1:1 by weight or volume. The difference is in the bake: chunks are bigger and usually skip the stabilizers that help chips keep their shape, so they melt into broad, gooey pools.
You can make your own by chopping a baking bar into roughly ½-inch pieces; a cup of chopped chocolate is also about 170 g.
