Lots of American recipes call for cup measurements. We don't use them in the UK, only metric and imperial. Can anyone tell me what the weigh equivalent is?

The only cup measurements in the UK are for bras!

The equivalent to 1 (One) American Cup for various objects are :

1 Cup = Volume - Dry - 225 ML.
Volume - Liquid - 8 full Oz. or 250 ml.
Dry Measure - 226.8 grams

1 Cup = 16 Tablespoons = 48 Teaspoons (US)
1 Cup = 240 ml = 24 cl = 2.4 dl (US to metric)

(If you don't want to be too accurate)

A cup is about 300ml in fluid. You can calculate the differant weights from that (about 300g in flour, 250g for sugar etc)
