I so much prefer weighing out the ingredients, yet most American recipes still come by volume. I hate to say how many decades I've been baking, where sugars are almost always in one or two cup measurements, and the corporate box or the artisanal bag is listed at one pound, and how many times I used my scale to measure a partial bag from which I remembered removing one cup and discovered that the remaining sugar was nearly always 8 ounces.

Life is not perfect, but weighing brown sugar makes it just a little less stressful. For recipes that don’t give weights, I’d use Rose’s weights when firmly packed cups are called for, and use my 7 or Stella’s 8 ounces per cup when packed cups are called for. Calculate weight of Cream, fluid, half and half per volume, it weighs 256 half and half weigh(s) 256 grams per metric cup or 8. When using recipes from trusted sources who give both weight and volume, just use their weights and ignore the cups and adjectives. ![]()
