Kitchen Scales:
You don’t have to have scales but they are handy to give you accurate measurements for things like butter, meat, fish or chicken.

Measure Spoons:
Metric measuring spoons are used to measure smaller amounts and come in 1 tablespoon,
1 teaspoon, 1/2 teaspoon and a 1/4 teaspoon sizes.

Measuring Cups:
Metric measuring cups are used to measure dry ingredients like flour, sugar, coconut, oats, rice etc. They can also be used to measure things like jam, honey, milk or stock. The cups come in sets with 1 cup, 1/2 cup, 1/3 cup and 1/4 cup sizes, and for an accurate measure with dry ingredients the top is levelled off with a knife. See how to measure.

Measuring Jugs:
Metric measuring jugs are used for liquid measure only and should not be used for dry ingredients.
