  • These figures use the US cup (240 ml). A metric cup is slightly larger at 250 ml, so it holds a little more. Use the metric cup converter →
  • Cup sizes are not standard worldwide, so the same cup of an ingredient can weigh more or less depending on the country. What is a cup measurement →
  • A tablespoon here is the 15 ml metric standard, about 16.67 to a metric cup, the same size as a UK tablespoon. A US tablespoon is smaller at 14.79 ml, so US cooks measuring with US spoons need slightly more. An Australian tablespoon is larger at 20 ml, so it holds about a third more. When tablespoon size matters →
  • One metric tablespoon of dried apricot halves weighs about 8.1 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 8 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 10.8 grams.
  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.

A bag of dried apricot halves goes into fruit cakes, granola, and trail mixes, and recipes flip between cups and grams without warning. One metric cup of halves weighs about 135 g (4.76 oz), so 200 g of the bag is roughly 1.5 cups. Convert between either when scaling a recipe up or down.

Dried fruit settles in the cup, so the same 1 cup measure can drift from 130 g to 145 g depending on how the halves nest. Use weight when the fruit ratio drives the texture, like a Christmas cake or rugelach.

Got chopped or diced dried apricots instead? They nest tighter, so 1 cup weighs about 160 g rather than 135 g. Use the chopped converter when the recipe specifies the chopped form. See what 1 tablespoon of chopped dried apricots is in US cups.

Craisins are sweetened dried cranberries, smaller and tarter than apricot halves. They pack lighter (120 g vs 135 g per cup), so weigh when swapping and expect a punchy, sweet-tart hit rather than the mellow apricot flavour. See what 1 tablespoon of craisins is in US cups.

Sultanas are bite-sized golden dried grapes, heavier than apricot halves (165 g vs 135 g per cup) and sweeter. Use the sultanas converter when a recipe calls for them by volume, and weigh when the fruit ratio matters. See what 1 tablespoon of sultanas is in US cups.

Raisins are bite-sized dark dried grapes, heavier than apricot halves (165 g vs 135 g per cup) and with a deeper caramel-sweet flavour. Use the raisins converter when a recipe calls for them by volume, and weigh when the fruit ratio matters. See what 1 tablespoon of raisins is in US cups.
