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?

Weight ounces and fluid ounces are different measurements. A fluid ounce measures volume (29.574 ml), while an ounce measures weight (28.35g). They only align for water, where 1 fl oz weighs approximately 1 oz.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 2.68 oz, based on sour cream having a density of 230g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of cups by 230 (grams per cup for sour cream), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 0.33 cups: 0.33 × 230 = 75.9g, then 75.9 ÷ 28.3495 = 2.68 oz.
For the most accurate results, weigh sour cream on a kitchen scale. If measuring by volume, spoon the ingredient into the measuring cup and level it off with a straight edge rather than scooping directly.
Fat content has a small effect on density. Higher-fat versions are slightly lighter per volume because fat is less dense than water. The difference is usually under 5%, so this conversion works well for standard varieties.
Reverse the conversion: 2.68 oz × 28.3495 = 75.9g, then 75.9g ÷ 230 = 0.33 cups. Or use the Ounces to Cups converter.
