}Explanation
Convert 1 US cup of cake flour to ounces by weight with an ingredient-specific cup reference.
The result is mass, not fluid ounces. That is especially useful for baking and dough work, where small differences in flour volume can change hydration and texture. The reverse conversion uses the same ounce-per-cup reference.
