Recipe Scaler

Tips for accurate scaling

• Spices and salt often need less proportional scaling — scaling 3× doesn't mean 3× the cumin. Taste-test.
• Pan size doesn't scale linearly. A 9" cake pan scaled 1.5× isn't a 13.5" pan — adjust thickness or bake time instead.
• Baking time stays similar for thickness. Total volume + 50% = +10-20% bake time, not 50%.
• Yeast doughs scale cleanly; soufflés, custards, meringues are notoriously fussy at scale.
