Pros and cons of Cake - ingredient conversion app for iPhone and iPad

Cake - ingredient conversion app good for

Ill be able to bake more cake with all the time I save looking for ingredients! ⚡️

One of the best ideas ever! Its always hard to find easy to use conversion charts and this makes measuring a cinch!

I am not sure that the conversions are all accurate. For example, egg yolks have a specific gravity of 1.032 which should make 100 ml 103.2 grams not 127, as far as I understand it, as shows in the app. I would have contacted the app developer to ask this question, but there is no link to do so. I love the idea of the app and will have lots of use for it once I am sure that the conversions are accurate.

Some bad moments

I love the simplicity & design of this app! Now I don’t have to fumble around google to convert measurements while I’m in the kitchen :D

I hate recipes with volume measurements instead of weights. This app is fantastic, it converts easily, has big touch targets so its easy to use in the kitchen, and the user interface is minimal but beautiful. Many simple calculator-style apps neglect the UI and are unbelievably ugly, but not this one.

I have been look for an app like this. I guess Ive been searching wrong? Haha. I dont understand why those other conversion apps make everything so complicated. This app is simple, easy to use and looks nice. Im sorry I cant ever remember how many grams .5 cup of flour is for my Dutch babies! Lol.

It saved me 10 dollar to buy a kitchen scale which will also take a big place in our small kitchen. Easy to use app.

This app does exactly what it promises in an elegant and efficient way. Interface allows quick entry and easy-to-read conversions.
