Eggs & Dairy Calculators

Eggs and dairy products are the backbone of most baking recipes, but their variability can catch even experienced bakers off guard. A UK large egg weighs roughly 68g while a medium weighs about 58g — that 10g difference across four eggs is nearly a whole extra egg. Our egg and dairy calculators help you handle these variations so your recipes turn out consistently every time.

The egg size converter lets you adjust recipes between small, medium, large, and very large UK eggs, while the egg quantity by weight calculator tells you how many eggs you need when a recipe specifies weight in grams. The egg white and yolk weight calculator is invaluable for meringues, custards, and any recipe that calls for separated eggs by weight. On the dairy side, the cream fat content calculator helps you mix different creams to achieve a target fat percentage, and the cream to milk converter shows you how to substitute between cream and milk-plus-butter combinations.

For savoury baking and cooking, the cheese sauce and bechamel calculators provide precise butter, flour, milk, and cheese quantities scaled to your number of servings. The whipped cream volume calculator tells you exactly how much liquid double cream you need for a target volume of whipped cream, and the milk type substitution calculator handles adjustments between whole, semi-skimmed, skimmed, and plant-based milks. All quantities are in metric and based on standard UK product specifications.
