Recipe Scaler
Paste any ingredient list, or pick one of our recipes, and scale every quantity to the number of servings you need.
1. Your ingredients
2. Scaled ingredients
Quantities at the start of each line are scaled and shown as kitchen fractions. Lines without a number, like "pinch of salt", are left as written: adjust them to taste.
Tips for scaling
- Recognised formats: whole numbers, decimals (1.5), fractions (3/4), mixed numbers (1 1/2), fraction characters (½) and ranges (2-3).
- Pan size, cooking time and seasoning don't scale in a straight line. Read scaling a recipe up or down before doubling a cake.
- Changing pans instead of servings? Use the pan size converter.
