Why do gram weights for cocoa powder vary between recipes?

Volume measurements depend on how the ingredient is packed. Spooned-and-leveled cocoa powder weighs less than scooped. Our values use standard baking averages, so brands and techniques may differ by a few percent.

Is it better to measure cocoa powder by weight or volume?

Weight. A kitchen scale removes packing errors entirely, which is why professional recipes list grams. Use this table to convert older volume-based recipes.
