How many cups in 6 oz of dry jello?

* Jello is a powder: Dry jello is a powder, and powders don't have a consistent volume-to-weight ratio. This means 6 ounces of one type of jello powder could take up a different amount of space than 6 ounces of another type.

* Jello needs water: Dry jello needs to be mixed with water to become the gelatin we know. The amount of water used will significantly change the final volume.

Instead of converting ounces to cups, focus on the recipe instructions. Jello boxes usually provide instructions on the amount of water needed to make the specified amount of jello.
