Measuring Tip
For the most consistent results, weigh cashews on a kitchen scale. Volume measurements of nuts vary depending on size, shape, and how tightly they pack.
Understanding the Units
What is a Cup?
There are three cup standards used worldwide. The US cup (236.588 ml) is used in American recipes. The metric cup (250 ml) is standard in Australia, New Zealand, and some parts of Asia. The imperial cup (284.131 ml) appears in older British and Canadian recipes. A metric cup holds about 5.7% more than a US cup, while an imperial cup holds about 20% more. Using the wrong standard can noticeably affect a recipe.
What is an Ounce?
An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.

The most accurate way is to weigh cashews on a kitchen scale. If you are measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly from the container, which packs more in and gives a heavier result.
Close, but not exactly. The cups to ounces conversion for cashews may vary slightly between brands depending on moisture content and how the ingredient is measured.
Weighing is more consistent than volume measuring. A cup of cashews can vary by 10-20% depending on how it's scooped, packed, or leveled. Weighing gives the same result every time, which is especially important in baking where precision affects texture and rise.
