- Cream Cheese Full-fat cream cheese at room temperature. 1 US cup weighs 232 grams. The standard 8 oz block sold in American grocery stores weighs 226 grams, very close to one cup.
- Heavy Cream Heavy cream at 36 to 40 percent milk fat. 1 US cup weighs 238 grams. Slightly less dense than water because the high fat content reduces overall density even with the milk solids.
- Milk Whole cow milk at 3.25 percent fat. Skim milk is slightly denser at around 1.035 g/ml; heavy cream is lighter at 0.992 g/ml because the fat content reduces overall density.
- Yogurt Plain whole-milk yogurt. 1 US cup weighs 245 grams, the same as whole milk because the cultures do not change density meaningfully. Greek yogurt is denser at around 250g per cup; non-fat yogurt slightly heavier at around 248g.
