Almost 5 stars
Truly a helpful and easy to use kitchen tool. Would be even better if it had a simple and direct calculator in the “converters” section to get equivalency ratios. Currently you have to use the “Limiting” or “yield” tools to build that calculation. Would be nice to be able to just plug in numbers and press a “calculate” button to get a missing variable. Still, Bake-u-lator is a really good, reliable app.Show lessKeys8309

How do I delete saved recipesStingyGemini
Developer Response
Thanks for using Bake-u-lator! You can delete saved recipes by swiping left on the recipe from the list of recipes.Please, so much potential I would gladly pay for
It’s pretty good as is, but just needs a little more flexibility.
This app is going to help me keep track of baking experiments, and I’m very excited about that. I did immediately meet what seems like a big shortcoming. When using the yield tool, what I’m most likely doing is trying to re-portion the recipe to just make 2 cupcakes or whatever. The results in this case are useless, offering things in 1/12 of a cup, or 1/16 tsp. It will always return the new measurement in the same scale as the original measurement, which is unusable without one by one converting them to weight measurements, which is tedious when looking to permutate a recipe 12 different ways.
There are some other minor gripes, but that’s the main one. It’s really a remarkably nice app considering it’s free. It’s just a shame that you’ll need to invest time into it to get your recipes in the system, but then the system is limited in some really frustrating ways. I’d gladly pay $5-$10 for a more robust version of this exact app, especially if it were partially geared toward tracking baking experiments.Show lessbpetruzzo
Great app.
I have always loved baking. This app Allows me to write out the measurements. It will be helpful for young bakers to become advancedjanuary 18
App usage
App is difficult to use for updating recipe ingredients and then calculating calories. Update of ingredients with calories or density dies not add the ingredients to the recipe list for calculating new caloric content.digiray
Minimal usefulness as a recipe calorie calculator
I downloaded this for the recipe calorie calculator. Most of the ingredients for my first recipe were not in the app (peanut butter, rolled oats, cocoa nibs, flax seed meal, coconut) so I entered them all manually including the calories/100g, which I had to calculate manually. I input the recipe - it does have a very convenient feature for entering quantities - and when I pressed calculate, it had no calories for all of the ingredients I had so painstakingly calculated and entered. Total waste of time. In all fairness, if you are only using the ingredients included in the app, it seems to work well.Show lessKCB1983

Hi - sorry you had a bad experience with our app. In order to calculate calories, each custom ingredient must include calories per 100 grams AND a density. The instructions were not very clear that density is also required. We just pushed an update that addressed this and also made it easier to add this missing information. Thank you for bringing this to our attention!Inaccurate AF
This app is very inaccurate. It has no options for quantitative items (ex: eggs) which causes the calculation to be inaccurate.Jazz trespass

For items such as eggs, users are given the option to enter the number required and select “units” as the measurement label. We are currently working on to add the “unit” measurement label to custom ingredients and expect it to be included in our next update.Great app!
Easy to use. Lots of great features. I usually like to bake small batches so this app makes it easy to downsize recipes!KingStock
HORRIBLE.
I was SO looking forward to an app that would be easy to use and accurate. It was great to use and ABSOLUTELY inaccurate. I ruined an entire recipe after trusting this app. Never again.reesaaann
