Butter wrappers are printed with measurement information on them to keep it simple. One stick equals ½ cup or 8 tablespoons. If you find yourself without the wrapper for reference, the following conversion table will help:
| Cups | Sticks | Pounds | Tablespoons |
|---|---|---|---|
| ¼ | ½ | ⅛ | 4 |
| ⅓ | ½ + (1 ⅓ Tablespoons) | 5 ⅓ | |
| ½ | 1 | ¼ | 8 |
| ⅔ | 1 + (2 ⅔ Tablespoons) | 10 ⅔ | |
| ¾ | 1½ | ⅜ | 12 |
| 1 | 2 | ½ | 16 |
| 2 | 4 | 1 | 32 |
Please note that whipped butter cannot be measured by volume.
