Using the tool

Is my recipe data uploaded?

No. Amounts and preferences stay in your browser. We do not collect or store conversions on a server.

Why do ingredient cups differ from plain volume?

A cup of flour does not weigh the same as a cup of sugar. Ingredient mode uses a static density table (for example ~120g flour, ~200g sugar, ~227g butter per cup).

How accurate is gas mark?

Gas marks are rounded oven equivalents from common UK charts. Use them as a guide and watch your bake.

What do recipe fractions do?

When converting to cups, results can round to common fractions like 1/4, 1/3, or 1/2 for recipe-friendly amounts.
