Serving Sizer™ scales
recipes by serving size--enter recipe's serving size and the new number
of servings and this cooking calculator will handle all the fraction
math for you.
- Your favorite recipe serves 4, but you have a family
of 5--use Serving Sizer to convert ingredients to your needs.
- Holiday dinners are around the corner and the guest
list is for 14. You want to make your favorite corn pudding, but the
serving size is 6. This app will do the math so you make enough for
everyone.
- Dinner for 1 tonight, but you don't want 3 days of
leftovers. Convert that 4 serving recipe to a 1-person meal.
- You're catering a big event for 100. You have an 8
serving recipe to increase for a crowd. The app will help calculate the
right amounts to buy and make.
- Sure, anyone can double a recipe from 4 to 8
servings, but what if you have 10 people coming and don't want to run
out of meat? Serving Sizer will tell you how many pounds of meat to buy
for your dinner party.
- Got a cookbook you bought in Europe, but the recipes
are all in metric? Serving Sizer can help here too--all calculations
are displayed in both Imperial and Metric units. Converting to and from
metric and imperial units requires no additional steps. Just tap on
"original" serving size and you'll see amounts in both ml and cups.
 
Enter the recipe's servings, new desired servings, and each ingredient
amount. The app converts the measurement, automatically optimizing to
the minimum number of steps, such as 1 c and 1 T, instead of 17
tablespoons. Units are shown in both metric and imperial. Double,
triple, and halve buttons make it easy to convert quickly to common
recipe conversions. The data entry experience has been optimized with
custom pickers--no need to enter decimals for fractions, nor type
multiple characters--just use a custom slider to pick common fractions.
Units are chosen the same way--tap on volume or weight and pick the
units. The keypad makes entering numbers a snap. Enter numbers of items
(like eggs or tomatoes) and let Serving Sizer determine the fraction
you'll need.
