}Explanation
Convert 1 US cup of half and half to ounces by weight with an ingredient-specific cup reference.
The result is mass, not fluid ounces. That is especially useful for sauces, custards, and baking formulas that move between poured volume and target weight. The reverse conversion uses the same ounce-per-cup reference.
