How to measure sweetened condensed milk

Sweetened condensed milk is thick and sugary — much heavier than regular milk.

If you are working from cups, keep your technique consistent every time so your results are repeatable. For more, see our guide on baking by weight versus volume.

Sweetened condensed milk conversions: FAQ

Why doesn't a cup of sweetened condensed milk weigh the same as a cup of water?

A cup measures volume, not weight. Sweetened condensed milk is denser than water (306 g versus 237 g per cup), so the same volume has a different weight. Weighing in grams is the most accurate way to measure it.
