Hi again,

Just treated myself to the idiots guide to Jams, jellies and preserves.

My problem is that I do not know what the equivalent for a cup is in either pounds and ounces or grammes.

Can anyone help this poor british girl.

Hi thanks,

Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you. I had to get a new hard drive for my computer.

Hi Susan,

If this helps, 1 pound = 454 grams or conversely...1 kilo = 2.2 pounds.
And...1 cup = 250 ml.
I know exactly what you're going through. All recipes printed in Canada are in metric, but US recipes still have imperial measurements.
