⅓ cup of butter on the wrapper
American recipes often write "⅓ cup butter (5⅓ tablespoons)". That's about 76 grams, so 75 g and ⅓ cup are interchangeable. On a stick, cut at the 5-tablespoon mark and add 1 teaspoon.
Crumble and streusel amounts
Metric crumble toppings often use 75 g each of butter, sugar and flour. In cups those three equal weights look very different:
- Butter: ⅓ cup
- Granulated sugar: ⅓ cup + 2 tsp
- All-purpose flour: ½ cup + 2 tbsp
If you converted all three with one number, the topping would come out greasy or dry. Equal weights are not equal cups.
