About
Baking at elevation used to be trial and error. Not anymore. SkyHigh Baking reads your recipe, figures out your altitude, and tells you exactly what to change and why, so your cakes stop sinking and your cookies stop spreading.
How it works
Photograph a recipe, use a screenshot, upload a file, or paste the text in. SkyHigh Baking reads it on-device (no internet required), asks you to confirm a few quick details about the recipe, and resolves your altitude automatically from your location, or you can enter it by hand. In seconds, you get a fully adjusted version: ingredient amounts, oven temperature, and bake time, each with a plain-language explanation of why it changed.
Built for real baking, not just a calculator
- Photo and file import with on-device text recognition, so you never have to type out a whole recipe by hand
- Automatic altitude detection, or enter your altitude, ZIP code, or postal code
- Ingredient-by-ingredient adjustments for flour, leavening, sugar, liquid, and more, not just a blanket "add more flour"
- Works with recipes measured in cups and spoons. Ingredients listed by weight (grams or ounces) are pointed out and left as written
- Oven temperature and bake-time guidance tailored to your elevation band
- Your recipe's own steps, with the new temperature and bake time written right in
- Pan-material refinements for more precise oven guidance
- Clear "why" explanations for every change, so you understand the science and not just the numbers
- Water's actual boiling point at your elevation, and why it matters for what you're baking
- Works completely offline, no signal needed in the kitchen or off the grid
- Universal app, full support for iPhone and iPad
Not just a calculator for your own recipes
- Publisher's Favorites: a growing set of recipes we've written ourselves. Tap one and convert it for your altitude, no typing required
- My Recipes: save any conversion and come back to it later. Reopen it exactly as saved, or recalculate it if you're baking somewhere new. Deleted one by mistake? It stays in Recently Deleted for 30 days
- Learn: a plain-language reference on the science of baking at elevation, covering boiling point, leavening, yeast, oven technique, and more
Built for how you actually bake
Dark mode, adjustable text size, and VoiceOver support mean SkyHigh Baking works whether you're squinting at a phone with flour on your hands or propping an iPad up as a kitchen reference.
Your privacy, respected
No account, no login, no persistent user ID. Your recipes, saved history, and location data stay on your device. Nothing is uploaded anywhere unless you explicitly choose to send us feedback about a specific conversion, and even then you see and approve the email before it sends. No ads, no analytics, no tracking.
Honest pricing
One-time purchase, no subscription. Everything in the app when you buy it is yours for good, and updates to it are free. Some future features may be offered as optional one-time add-ons. You'll never need one to keep using what you already have.
Whether you just moved to Denver, live in the mountains, or are visiting a cabin at elevation for the holidays, SkyHigh Baking takes the guesswork out of high-altitude baking so you can trust your oven again.
SkyHigh Baking is made by 5280 Labs in the Denver area. Denver is home, but altitude baking isn't a Denver problem. It happens anywhere your kitchen sits above sea level, and the app works the same way no matter where that is.
