I have been receiving many queries and emails about cup measurements. So I thought, I will post the measurements and the pictures of my measuring cups and spoons.
Cup Measurements
1 cup = 250 ml
3/4 cup =175 ml
1/2 cup = 125 ml
1/3 cup = 75 ml
1/4 cup = 50 ml
Spoon Measurements
1 tbsp = 15 ml
1/2 tbsp = 7.5 ml
1 tsp = 5 ml
1/2 tsp = 2.5 ml
1/3 tsp =1.67 ml
1/4 tsp =1.25 ml
Hope this will be useful to many. These cups and spoons are easily available in most departmental stores and in all shops which sell baking supplies. In Chennai it is available in Waltax road.
