SwitchExplanation
This page answers the kitchen question in weight terms: how much 1 US cup of light brown sugar weighs in ounces. It converts cup volume into weight ounces using one ingredient-specific factor instead of a generic chart.
It is measuring mass, not fluid ounces. That is especially useful for cookies, bars, sauces, and baking prep where packed sugar volume can differ sharply from a loose fill. The mirror page uses the same ounce-per-cup conversion in reverse so both directions stay aligned.
