Instant Pudding Mix
Instant pudding mix weighs 112g per cup. A standard small box is about 96g (3.4 oz). Beyond making pudding, the dry mix is used to keep cakes extra moist — add the powder directly to cake batter along with the other dry ingredients. Pudding mix also stabilizes whipped cream when folded in (2 tablespoons per cup of cream). It thickens fruit fillings for pies without cooking. Store sealed boxes in a cool, dry place until the expiration date.

03 // WHY IT MATTERS
If your cookies spread, your bread is gummy, or your cake sinks — flour weight is usually why.
A scooped cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 125g to 180g. That's a 44% range — enough to wreck a cake.
Modern recipes use the spoon-and-level method: fluff the flour, spoon it into a dry measuring cup without packing, then sweep flat with a knife.
The scoop method — pushing the cup directly into the bag — packs in 40-50% more flour.
