Frequently asked questions

How many grams is 1/2 cup of heavy cream?

1/2 cup of heavy cream is 119 grams, based on 238 g per level US cup.

Is it different with a UK or Australian cup?

Slightly. UK, Australian and New Zealand recipes use a 250 ml metric cup, which is about 6% bigger than a US cup (236.6 ml). Using a metric cup, 1/2 cup of heavy cream would be 126 g.

Should I weigh heavy cream or measure it by volume?

Measure liquids in a clear jug at eye level. Thick dairy like yogurt or sour cream should be levelled in a dry cup. Weighing is always more accurate, which is why grams are the safest choice for baking.
