Questions & answers

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this based on an ingredient-specific density estimate?

Yes. The page reduces the same 240 g-per-cup basis to a per-fluid-ounce estimate for Sour Cream.

Do thickness or air pockets change the result for Sour Cream?

Sour Cream keeps one reference basis here, but thickness, trapped air, and how compactly it fills the cup can shift practical density.
