While there are measuring cups, they aren’t a set of cups of fixed volume, like American measuring cups, but rather like beakers with markings on them.
Our baking recipes are also based on the mass of ingredients rather than volume, which frustrates me whenever I see US-based recipes who call out for the “cup” measurement instead of mentioning the amount of grams one needs.
I’ve cooked using both methods. Both systems are childishly easy to understand but some people have to put their noses in the air about one or the other.
Found the American :)

I just found the American, no mention of wether that’s a bad thing. It just makes your nation unique, that you use measuring cups.
Do measuring cups not exist outside of America?
We typically use a kitchen scale
