Heavy Cream
US Cup to Milliliter
Understanding Heavy Cream Conversions
The Math Behind This Conversion
Converting 1 us cup to milliliter is a direct volume conversion. One us cup equals 236.59ml, and one milliliter equals 1ml. So 1 us cup (236.59ml) equals 236.6 milliliter.
Measurement Tip
For room-temperature recipes, let heavy cream sit out for 15-20 minutes before measuring. Cold heavy cream is slightly denser than room-temperature heavy cream, which can affect very precise recipes. Our density of 0.98 g/ml is based on refrigerated heavy cream.
