    I think you should buy some measuring cups and use them it really helps a lot with portion control.

    Having said that 1 US cup has a volume of 240 millilitres, which is roughly 16 table spoons or 8.12 US Oz.

    It's a measuring cup, one used for cooking.

    A 1 cup measuring cup holds 8 ounces.
    A 1 cup measuring cup equals 237 milliliters.
    A 1 cup measuring cup is equal to 16 tablespoons.
    A 1 cup measuring cup is equal to 48 teaspoons.

    I hope this helps!

    Use the ones in grams instead.
