Archives: Request: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Archived on 09/10/2009 As I am in Australia, could you please tell me what quantity 1 stick of butter is in recipes? By Wendyann from Albion Park, NSW Australia Feedback: RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? The way they normally sell butter in the States is in pound packages and there are four individually wrapped sticks in each package. Each stick is 1/4 pound or 4 oz. It would equal 1/2 cup or 8 tablespoons. (06/09/2009) By jess RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Greatly appreciated, will now be able to make those nice recipes. (06/09/2009) By wendyann RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Some companies here in the States are now selling that pound of butter in eight sticks instead of four sticks. Land o' Lakes is the brand I use and they recently switched to the eight sticks per pound. Anyway, any stick of butter has markings on the individual wrappers here that show the tablespoon and/or cup amounts so if a recipe calls for 'a stick' you might want to find out the detailed equivalent measure. Sorry if I sound ignorant but I am curious if there are amount markings on Australia's sticks of butter? (06/10/2009) By Deeli RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter?

Archived on 06/09/2009 How much does a stick of butter weigh? Elizabeth from Santiago, Chile Feedback: RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Sticks of butter usually come in one pound packages of 4 sticks, so 1 stick equals 1/4 pound. If you buy Land O' Lakes, it has measurements on the side of the stick of butter, as well, with measurements by the tablespoon. (11/21/2007) By Mary Jo in St. Paul RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? 1 stick = 1/2 a cup 1 stick = 120g 1 stick = 120ml 1 stick = 4 ounces I hope this helped. (08/03/2008) By phe RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? In the USA, 1 stick of butter is 4 ounces which is 115 grams. 120 grams is a little high, by 5 grams, but that really shouldn't effect most recipes.

(12/10/2008) By Gladys Report Spam or Abuse Request: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Archived on 11/21/2007 Could you please explain to me how much is a stick of butter? I am in Australia and we weigh in metric. Thanks, Christine from Melbourne, Australia Answers: RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? One stick of butter is 8 tablespoons, and that equals 118.259 mililiters. I don't know for sure if that's what you need, but there's a good metric conversion tool at http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/conversions.htm (08/01/2006) By Kim RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Continued.... A stick of butter which is 8 tablespoons equals .113 kilograms. I think kilograms is what you need rather than milliliters. I hope this helps. (08/01/2006) By Kim RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Four sticks of butter weigh one pound, or 16 ounces. This is how we usually purchase it here in the US, in a 4 stick, one pound box. One "stick" of butter weighs 4 ounces. One stick of butter is 1/2 cup and if I'm reading my measuring cup correctly, would be somewhere between 120 to 125 ml. Hope this helps! I'm sorry I haven't learned the metric system. I believe my grandchildren have learned it. Wish one of them were here so I could ask them! (08/01/2006) By Grandma Margie RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? Well, I don't know metric, but a stick of butter is 8 tablespoons or 4 ounces. I hope you can convert this to metric now. (08/01/2006) By RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? It is 113 grams (or 4 oz. standard) (08/01/2006) By camo_angels RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter?

UNITED STATES 1 STICK OF BUTTER EQUALS 113 GR. APROX, 1/2 CUP (NOTE: IN MEXICO 1 STICK OF BUTTER EQUALS 90 GR.) (08/02/2006) By Midori RE: How Much is a Stick of Butter? http://www.gourmetsleuth.com/conversions.htm Click on the volume conversion or the metric conversion chart. In the US sticks of butter are sold 4 to a package, one package is 1 pound or 16 ounces. One stick of butter is 4 ounces. To convert this to metric I think it is - 1 stick = 4 ounces = 0.1134 killograms. I hope this helps. Bev (08/02/2006) By RE: How Much is a cup of Butter? Into metric please.
