USE THE RIGHT “TOOLS”

Baking is so much easier when you start with the right tools. Use a flour sifter for sifting dry ingredients. Use standard measuring cups and spoons. A nest of graduated measuring cups (1/4, 1/3, 1/2 and 1 cup) is handy for Spry, flour and sugar; a glass measuring cup for liquids; graduated measuring spoons (1/4, 1/2, 1 teaspoon, 1 tablespoon) for baking powder, salt, spices and extracts; a spatula for leveling off measurements.

Have at least one medium-sized bowl for mixing, slotted wooden spoon for mixing, a rubber spatula for scraping out utensils. Choose baking pans in the sizes you use most. Use wire racks for cooling baked products.
