The Smidgen icon: a measuring cup

Smidgen

A cup of flour is not a cup of sugar. Smidgen turns cups into grams for the ingredient in your hand, the way recipes write them.

Made for the kitchen

Ingredient-aware

150+ ingredients with densities from King Arthur Baking and the USDA. The card shows where each number comes from.

Reads like a recipe

Fraction keys for cups and spoons, and answers like 2¼ cups, not 2.25. Swap the direction, or pick the unit you want.

Your cup size

US (237 ml), metric (250 ml), or imperial (284 ml) cups, chosen the first time you open the app.

Oven temperatures

Celsius, Fahrenheit, and gas marks, with the number recipes print: 180 °C is 350 °F in a US recipe.

Scale a recipe

Pancakes for 4, made for 6. Every line rounds to something you can measure.

In 8 languages

English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Dutch, and Portuguese for Portugal and Brazil, with local ingredient names.
