About this figure
This weight comes from the King Arthur Baking weight chart. It assumes a level measure filled by the scoop-and-sweep method at room temperature. A heaped spoon, a packed cup or a humid kitchen changes the real weight — the difference is why every serious baking book asks for a scale.
