How to measure clotted cream accurately
For the most reliable baking results, weigh clotted cream on a kitchen scale rather than scooping by volume. One US cup of clotted cream weighs about 240 grams (8.47 oz), but the exact figure changes with how tightly it's packed and the brand. Scooping straight from the bag compacts clotted cream and can leave you 15 to 20% over, so spoon it into the cup and level it off for the closest match to the figures above. Use the tables for quick reference, or the converter for any custom amount in cups, grams, ounces or tablespoons.
Tip: Clotted cream is scooped, not poured; measure it by spooning into the cup and levelling, like a soft butter.
