Raisins go into oatmeal cookies, fruit cakes, granola, bread pudding, and rum raisin ice cream, and recipes flip between cups and grams without notice. One metric cup of raisins weighs about 165 g (5.82 oz), so a 250 g box is roughly 1.5 cups. Convert either way when scaling a recipe up or down.

A packed cup of raisins can weigh 10 to 15 g more than a loose one, depending on how the fruit nests. Weighing in grams keeps cookies, scones, and Christmas cakes consistent batch to batch.
