Conversions

Baking and creating in the kitchen can be part science, part experimentation. It can be hit or miss regarding the quantities of ingredients, whether you’re finding them in books, online, old or new. Measurements and amounts vary between different recipes and conversion charts. So sometimes the best person I can rely on for consistent measurements, is myself. I use the same measuring cup for everything I do, and swear by investing in decent digital scales too.

All of my recipes are measured on scales in grams, so this takes out the guessing and the varying sizes of cups around the country. So to make it simple, I’ve gone through and measured out a cup of various ingredients I’ve baked with so far and converted them into grams not only for others, but also myself. I’ll also continue to add more converted ingredients over time as I use them.

Occasionally when browsing food websites (particularly American) I would come across recipes that ask for a stick of butter. Here in New Zealand it comes in a block and that sounds like more than a stick. For those who have also come across this predicament, below the mystery has been solved.
