A standard 8 oz block of cream cheese is 226 grams, close to but not exactly 1 cup (232 grams). Most bakers treat a standard block as roughly 1 cup.

No. Whipped cream cheese is aerated and weighs less per cup than block-style cream cheese. This converter uses the standard block density of 232 g/cup.

Is 1 cup of cream cheese the same as 240 ml?

Not exactly. 1 US cup equals 240 ml by volume, and cream cheese is slightly denser than water, so the gram figure (232 g) sits close to, but not identical to, the ml figure.

Why do some recipe sites list a different gram figure for cream cheese?

Density varies slightly by brand and whether it is block-style, whipped, or reduced-fat. 232 g/cup is the standard baking-reference figure used here and matches the companion grams-to-cups converter.
