People who own a car and use the metric system, how do you adjust your cruise control speed?
Is it in whipped cream pressure or do you measure it in bra sizes like the US?

Same way!
Just as easy!
Assuming both road-signs and speedometers are in km/h, the same way as with miles and mph. Drive steadily at the required speed and press the button.
The speedometer on any vehicle sold in the UK has MPH as the primary numbers, and a mile-odometer, as we use miles and mph on the roads.
However it has a secondary scale in km/h so if driving it abroad we can still observe the speed-limits (some countries are very strict on this) and set the cruise-control if fitted.
I have never had a car with cruise-control but when driving abroad in the past, I put white adhesive-tape arrows on the glass to highlight the host's standard speed-limits.
