Dates are sticky-sweet dried fruit that go into energy balls, sticky toffee pudding, fruit cakes, and no-bake slices. One metric cup (250 ml) of chopped pitted dates weighs about 178 grams or 6.28 ounces. When a recipe lists dates in cups but you only have scales, converting by weight keeps the fruit ratio right.

Chopped dates pack and clump, so a firmly pressed cup can weigh 15 to 20 grams more than a loose one. Weighing in grams keeps sweetness and moisture steady across batches of slices and puddings.

Raisins are dark dried grapes, lighter than chopped dates (165 g vs 178 g per cup) and less sticky. Swap 1:1 by volume in fruit cakes and oat slices, and weigh when the fruit ratio matters. See our Raisins converter.

Sultanas are golden dried grapes, lighter than chopped dates (165 g vs 178 g per cup) and drier in texture. Swap 1:1 by volume in scones and granola when you want a less sticky crumb. See our Sultanas converter.

Craisins are sweetened dried cranberries, much lighter than chopped dates (120 g vs 178 g per cup) and tart rather than caramel-sweet. Weigh when swapping and expect a sharper edge in cookies and trail mix. See our Craisins converter.

Chopped dried apricots are diced bite-sized pieces, lighter than chopped dates (160 g vs 178 g per cup) and tangier. Swap 1:1 by volume in breakfast bars, and weigh when the fruit ratio matters. See our Chopped Dried Apricots converter.
