To measure 250g of butter without scales, use the wrapper's marked measurements as a guide, as most come with weight markers. If your butter doesn't have this, use a volume conversion: 250g of butter is approximately 1 cup + 1.5 tablespoons. For precision, press the butter into a measuring cup to ensure there are no air gaps. Alternatively, you can divide a standard 500g block of butter in half.
