Essential Baking Calculators for Every Home Baker

Whether you are scaling a family recipe for a crowd, converting an American recipe to metric, or working out how to swap a round tin for a square one, getting the maths right is crucial in baking. Unlike cooking, where a pinch more or less rarely matters, baking relies on precise ratios of flour, fat, sugar, eggs, and leavening. Our baking essentials calculators handle the arithmetic so you can focus on technique and flavour.

The recipe scaler lets you adjust any recipe by servings or multiplier while keeping every ingredient in perfect proportion. The cake tin size converter accounts for the area difference between tins so your batter depth stays consistent, and the baking time adjustment calculator recalculates oven time when you change tin size. For vegan or allergy-friendly baking, the egg replacement calculator provides precise substitution quantities for flax, chia, aquafaba, and other alternatives.

Baker's percentages are the professional way to express a recipe, with every ingredient shown as a percentage of the flour weight. This makes scaling effortless and allows you to compare recipes at a glance. Our baker's percentage calculator converts any recipe into this format instantly. Combined with the oven temperature converter and fan oven adjustment tool, you have everything you need to follow recipes from any source with confidence.
