Here is a quick guide for help converting between Australian, British and US style measurements....
I think this is really a nice recipe for blueberries, we reduced the sugar, useing about half of the amount, the bars turned out a little bit soft, but still very good, my husband loves these whole wheat blueberries very much, and gave us extra fibre.
