Heard about us
🥄 Serving tools & scoops — your spoons, scoops and what one scoop weighs
Spoons and scoops are measured by volume (the “oz” on a spoon is fluid ounces). To turn a scoop into grams, weigh one level scoop of each dish once and save it. Until then the app estimates from the recipe’s grams per cup, if it has one.
