Understanding Butter Measurements

Converting between cups and ounces of butter is essential for precise baking and cooking. Here are some key facts:

  • 1 cup of butter = 8 ounces (weight) = 2 sticks
  • 1 stick of butter = 1/2 cup = 4 ounces
  • 1 pound of butter = 2 cups = 16 ounces = 4 sticks

Most butter in the US is sold in 1-pound packages divided into 4 sticks, making it easy to measure both by volume (cups) and weight (ounces).
