  • 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

  • A little over or under won't ruin the bake, though it can nudge the final taste or colour.

Slivered almonds are blanched almonds sliced into thin strips, used to top cakes, pastries, salads, and stir-fries. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs around 108 grams or 3.81 ounces. When a recipe lists slivered almonds in cups but your packet shows grams, converting by weight stops you over- or under-scattering a topping.

Thin slivers settle into the gaps of a measuring cup unevenly, so a cup can vary by several grams. Weighing in grams gives a consistent amount for toppings and toasted garnishes.

Almond meal is almonds ground to a coarse flour, slightly lighter per cup (100 g vs 108 g) and used as a baking base rather than a topping. The two are not interchangeable; slivered almonds stay whole on top, almond meal blends into the crumb. See what 1 tablespoon of almond meal is in cups.

Almond flour is blanched almonds milled to a fine, pale powder (96 g vs 108 g per cup). It is a flour substitute for the crumb, while slivered almonds are a topping for texture, so the two play different roles in a bake. See what 1 tablespoon of almond flour is in cups.
