It's a 2 ounce scoop (4 tablespoons) so is a smaller size scoop than the standard you usually expect.

It's a smaller sized scoop. So, if you're into smaller scoops it might work. While it feels sturdy, I wonder how it would stand up to hard ice cream.

It must be a typo, I would think it is more like three to five lbs. When empty you can easily lift with one hand even if it is full of ice cream it can be lifted easily.

This is a terrific scoop, well made but......it won't last very long if used on hard ice cream.Your best bet for a ice cream scoop is one without moving parts and very solid.

The eight inch is 8 inches long and produces one small scoop. It is really good at digging into very hard ice cream. I don't know about the 2 scoop model, but you could but a lot of ice cream for the price difference. I couldn't find the 2 scoop model on the oxo webpage, but you may have more luck.

I bought the medium scoop and I get a cookie that is about 2 1\4 inch. I think the small scoop would be too small for a mini cupcake. For me I would get the medium scoop.

I would think so, I've used the small & the medium size scoops so far and found them very versatile. I would think you would find one of the sizes would meet your needs.

I have used both to make cookies, it is just a matter of cooky size. Personally I like smaller-sized cookies. The smaller scoop gives yo a 2" diameter cooky.

Yeah it was perfect for a large ice cream cake. I think the size of the picture was 5x7. You just have to put it on before serving.

I'm not sure exactly but I recently made the 5 quart recipe in the book that came with the maker and I had excess so the 4 quart recipe should be close to the right amount. And if you fill it over half by too much it will overflow when it freezes into ice cream. Hope this helps.

BTW: The scoop is small. You will need to dig into the container to find it.

The medium-size scoop picks up approximately 1-1/2 tablespoons of dough, which yields a cookie 2-3/4 inches in diameter. It can also be used to produce decorative 1-3/4-inch balls of ice cream, rice, and other foods. The large holds 3 tablespoons of dough; yields a 3-1/2-inch cookie.

That depends completely on the recipe you use -- not the machine. Scoop able ice cream requires high fat content, or alcohol, or an additive like corn starch ( you can use confectioner's sugar instead of granulated sugar). You have to fool around with recipes to find the ones that work in your freezer.

It is actually very small. If you like bananas you would need to use about 3 to get a "serving." Granted I am someone who can eat a 1/2 a carton of ice cream in one sitting. Because of the amount that gets "stuck" in the plastic, 3 bananas + some other fruit would get you a decent bowl. Which actually also bummed me out, the calories on the bananas alone would be 350+. Much better to eat the real thing.

I USE IT FOR FROZEN YOGURT AND IT IS A NICE SIZE SCOOP. I HAD 1 For 15 years and it stop working right. I wanted another and am very happy with it. I cannot tell how many ounces or tbs it holds.

I use 1/2 and 1/2 and heavy cream just because our family likes a really rich ice cream. I wouldn't expect the same product using less fat content milk. Just try it and see what your family likes.

The scoop would work for icecream. However, the scoop only holds about two tablespoons. You might better buy a larger scoop. They come in all sizes.
