TAD-1/4 DASH- 1/9 (53/54 gm water) (this spoon is suspect!!)*PINCH-1/16SMIDGEN-1/32DROP=1/64As I left in Joanna's comments- I think this spoon may be getting a slightly defective form. Obviously Norpro's sequential intent is for the DASH to be 1/8 tsp but because I know my spoon is a bit lighter than that, there may be a factory forming issue giving varying results from the intended 1/8 tsp as other's have disagreed on this one. Checking the HIC Brands Cooking Essentials 1/8 tsp. that one is giving me 1/7 tsp or 143 gm. Now I guess I will need to check every spoon I have. Onto the Norpro 8 piece spoon to see if those are correct......(?)

Why would anyone purchase these? It is too cumbersome trying to figure out the measurements, just buy measuring spoons with the values on them.

Hard to say but I would say the largest is about 1/2 or 1/3 teaspoon. And the smallest 1/50-1/70 teaspoon. Again this is just a guess and I haven't accurately measured it.

TAD = 1/4 tsp DASH = 1/12 tsp &lt;&lt;&lt;&lt; not 1/8 &gt;&gt;&gt; PINCH = 1/16 tsp SMIDGEN = 1/32 tsp DROP = 1/64 tsp

I measured them out when they first arrived but have since donated them so I can not recheck. If I remember correctly, they begin with 1/8 teaspoon and progress down, 1/16 teaspoon 1/32 teaspoon 1/64 teaspoon.I don't recommend these. The metal does not have the weight or shine I like and the marks on the spoons are, as noted, cute names and not measurements.

Haven't needed them yet so I cannot say. I would try to compare with a normal set.

it was probably a teaspoon, but I only used 1/8 of a tsp mixed in a small amount of wet cat food to ensure he ate it all and the food wasn't too pasty, I had a picky eater. I didn't use the recommended amount, but gave 1/8 of a tsp with a few meals over the day

The spoons measure volume. You want to measure weight, so stick with a scale. Volume and weight measure different units.

We used spoons, forks and knives. I think these are the same brand listed here. They are awesome.

I think the table spoon is smaller than usual, but it is in no way a problem...it is still bigger than the teaspoon! I love the Lenox Portola set!

The picture is certainly what the cooking essentials are. The measuring spoons are plastic, just like the one I use. I was very satisfied with the product.

I don't understand the question. The sizes are: 1/64th teaspoon, 1/32 teaspoon, 1/16th teaspoon, 1/4 teaspoon and 1/2 teaspoon. That is in order of the smallest to largest. I marked them on the back with labels and scotched taped over them. I wash them carefully. They are very hand. For reference 3 teaspoons = 1 tablespoon. Hope that helps.

I through out the packaging so I'm not sure. And it does not say anywhere on the spoons. Sorry!

This a 1 tablespoon spoon. We are on a restricted diet right now, trying to lose some weight. The tablespoon seems to be the most common size we use. I use it to measure out olive oil, peanut butter, maple syrup, and so on. I ordered a few of these to keep them handy if my wife uses one for peanut butter and puts it in the dishwasher.

Hello Diane - the teaspoons are about 30% smaller than the dessert spoons and much smaller than serving spoons. Hope that helps. Mike.

Yes, the set includes a 3/4 tsp spoon. I just used mine today in expanding a recipe.

I can't find my blue scoop at the moment. But, I believe it is the same as one teaspoon. I'm not 100% sure.

First--if you haven't done it already--dig into the tin to make sure the scoop isn't buried at the bottom. The scoop is about 1.5 Tablespoons, I think. That would be about 4.5 teaspoons. You'd be safe using 2 Tablespoons' worth for an ordinary wash load.

1 spoon per packet of Splenda. The problem with *all* of the packet makers...they have to use a flat standard measure of a teaspoon while for the entire world of people putting stuff in drinks, they use a heaping teaspon (1.5+ "real" teaspoons) as a measurement.

Not sure what a place spoon is, but it comes with a teaspoon, tablespoon, and one large serving spoon.

Fill the drop spoon with exactly the stuff you want to measure, then weigh the amount. That's the most reliable way to find out.

Mr. Glen's answer is right on the money. I love this set and the spoons are not too big for me and I have a narrow mouth.
