Here’s your chance to win a digital kitchen scale

 

In many other countries ingredients used in cooking and baking are weighed because 50 grams of all-purpose flour is always 50 grams of flour.

However, depending on how you measure it in a measuring cup, what you think is 1/2 cup flour one is actually 1/2 cup minus a tablespoon on the day you’re in a hurry and 1/2 cup plus one tablespoon on the day you didn’t level off your measuring cup with a knife blade. These subtleties can adversely effect baking results.

You wouldn’t want to incorrectly measure the flour on a batch of cookies and mess those up. The horrors.

There’s also the issue of portion sizes and weighing food and many people find scales helpful for that.

 

Also included in this giveaway is a free email consultation with a nutritionist on the SlimKicker team.

  1. I want a scale so badly! I am trying to get better at baking, and I know that having a scale is essential for getting precise results. I would use my new scale to bake up a storm! (And then I would definitely need to use slimkicker!)

  2. The ‘No Snacks After Dinner’ challenge sounds … challenging. It would be great to have to be accountable to someone besides myself!

  3. If I had a food scale, life would be much easier. I’m on weight watchers and it’s hard to determine how many ounces a food item is just by looking at it!

  4. That Ozeri would be a huge improvement from the dial scale I’m using now, love the wide range and .05oz increments! I paid $5.19 for my current scale at Target and although it’s perfect for traveling since it’s so small and the weighing tray is actually a box that can hold the scale, the 1lb capacity and 5g increments aren’t great for certain recipes.
