I have an old recipe that calls for a NO. 303 can of fruit cocktail. What size can would that be in ounces? It is used in a great recipe for a fruit cocktail cake that is very moist. Thanks for any help on this.

16-17 ounces/2 cups
Thanks, this is Irene from Texas and decided to make this same Fruit
Cocktail Cake and needed to know the amount of ounces in a #303 can. Thanks so very much for making my day! The people at church will enjoy this tonight at the Fish Fry.
Thanks Again!
Roughly 15 1/2 ounces.
It is the middle can size not the very little one and not the big fat can.it's 15.25,0z.been making fruit cocktail cake for 45 years.
The old recipe says 1 cup sugar. Do you put in more, since fruit cocktail used to come in heavy syrup?
I googled it and it said 16-17 oz.
From google it says 303 is equal to 2 cups or 16/17 ounces
Thanks to all for the replies to my question. I have an old recipe my Mom used a lot for a Fruit Cocktail cake. It very moist and so good!
I have the (a) Fruit Cocktail Cake recipe from the 60s! Thank you to everyone for your replies - I had no idea how much a #303 can holds!

What size oblong pan did you use?
Hi! Can you share the recipe? My aunt used to make this and I loved it but the recipes I've tried just are as good. I'd love if you share your recipe '
Approximately 16-17 oz in a 303 can. This will be about 2 cups.
Thanks to all who responded to my question. I really appreciate all of you. I will post the recipe on this site soon. It makes a very delicious moist cake. And is very simple to make.

No. 1________1+1/4 cups__________10+1/2 - 12 oz.
No. 300______1+3/4 cups______________14 - 16 oz.
Thank you everyone for the help you gave Pat Ray because those answers also helped me! I found this Q&A when looking for the same answer, also for my grandmothers Fruit Cocktail Cake recipe. Grandma and I started working on a cookbook of her recipes together but she had to finish typing it herself when I went home after my great aunt died.
