1 cup of mayonnaise weighs 224 grams. Mayonnaise is used in both cooking and baking — in cakes and muffins it adds fat and moisture, and the volume can significantly affect the result. Light or reduced-fat mayonnaise has a higher water content and weighs slightly less per cup; use the same brand and style the recipe specifies.
For the most accurate results, weigh your mayonnaise with a digital kitchen scale — the values below assume a level, unpacked cup.

Practical baking & cooking tips for mayonnaise

- Full-fat real mayonnaise contains 70–80% oil; light mayonnaise contains modified food starch and water that behave differently in hot dishes.
- Use real mayonnaise to sear grilled cheese sandwiches—its high smoke point browns bread more evenly than butter.

Mayonnaise is a delicate emulsion of oil, egg yolks, and vinegar. In baking (such as classic chocolate mayonnaise cake) and savory sauces, accurate weight guarantees proper fat emulsion.
Who needs grams for mayonnaise?

Common mistakes to avoid with mayonnaise
- Confusing light mayonnaise with regular in baking — the water content differs, which affects moisture in cakes and dressings.
- Adding mayonnaise to hot dishes directly from the jar, causing it to split rather than emulsify.
- Overmixing mayonnaise into batters, which can make the result greasy rather than moist.
