One US cup of mascarpone weighs 227 grams. One 250 ml metric cup — the one used in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada — holds 240 grams. To convert any weight, divide the grams by the figure for your cup.
Mascarpone weighs about 227 g per cup (King Arthur Baking), so an 8 oz (227 g) tub is one cup. Let it soften slightly before folding it into tiramisu or frosting, but measure it cold.

How to measure mascarpone accurately
The 227 g figure assumes the spooned-and-levelled method: spoon the mascarpone into a dry measuring cup and sweep the top flat with a straight edge. Scooping the cup through the bag compacts it and gives a heavier cup.
