Hello,
Referring to Rosie's sour cream chocolate cake recipe, I have problem trying to convert the cup measurements to grams. Does anyone know:
Kim
1 cup sifted all purpose flour weighs 114 grams. 1cup all purpose flour lightly spooned into the measuring cup weighs 121 grams. 1 cup sugar weighs 200 grams. 1 cup liquid equals approximately 236 ml.

A cup is set to 250 ml in Canada, for baking purposes. Flour will weigh different weights on different days...due to humidity. So get a 250ml container or measuring cup.
An American cup is 8 American Fluid ounces...You can do the conversion to ml. An Imperial cup is 10 British ounces There is a difference in ounce sizes. Rosie's recipe is probably American.
If you plan on doing a lot of Baking involving cups...buy a set of American measuring cups on the net...they are fairly cheap even with shipping charges.
