Where 238 g comes from

USDA FoodData Central: 1 cup, fluid (yields 2 cups whipped) of “Cream, fluid, heavy whipping” = 238 g. FDC 170859

King Arthur Baking ingredient weight chart (“Cream (heavy cream, light cream, or half & half)”): 227 g per cup. Chart

This page uses 238 g (USDA). The two sources differ by 11 g (4.62%): that gap is about how firmly the cup is filled, not an error in either.

Liquid heavy (whipping) cream weighs 238 g a cup in USDA's data. Whipped, it doubles in volume, so a cup of whipped cream is only about 120 g.

How to measure heavy cream by the cup

Use a liquid measuring jug on a flat surface and read the line at eye level, or weigh it: for liquids a scale is just as quick.

In the UK and Australia: double cream. Metric cups there hold 250 ml, so a metric cup of heavy cream weighs about 251 g.
