● Holiday dinner guest lists change yearly. Change 6-serving recipe to 14 one year, then to 9 the next.

● You're catering a big event for 100. Scale up an 8 serving recipe for a crowd. Serving Sizer™ Recipe Manager will calculate the right amounts to buy and make. Resize for a different sized group next time.
● Sure, anyone can double a recipe from 4 to 8 servings, but what if you have 10 people coming and don't want to run out of meat? Calculate how many pounds to buy for your dinner party.
● Got a cookbook from Europe, and amounts are all in metric? Serving Sizer Recipe Manager can help here too--one tap toggle to change between US and Metric units

Loved the previous version. The Pro will even more usefull. Lots of great new features have been added. P. L.
This is a neat ap for favorite recipies that you might make for company; it makes it much easier to size the portions, and elimiates conversion mistakes. (If it saves you from doing that wrong one time it's probably more than paid for itself already!) Useful, easy to use, intuitive, attractive UI; love the ingredient list.
Rating it only 4 because it still uses plain conversions, as in mass to mass and volume to volume. The real value would be grams to cups, for instance. Otherwise it's a pretty nice app. Editing a recipe is a bit confusing, I wanted to add ingredients but always ended up editing directions instead.
While preparing dishes in the kitchen I have my iPhone in one hand and a teaspoon in the other. Multipling portions is a breeze now and it makes shopping and cooking more fun! Without hesitation, I recomend this app.
This app delivers on it's promises. What I didn't stop to think about before purchasing it was that the promises weren't worth making. By the time you've finished typing in the recipe name, original ingredients and quantities you have lost interest in cooking and sent out for pizza. It takes that long! If the ingredient isn't in the database you can't even enter it. There is just no quick way to use it. It doesn't take an app to figure out that if the recipe calls for 3/4 cup of milk and you are doubling it, you need 1 1/2 cups of milk. Unless you have a lot of time and patience, reconsider purchasing this app.
I live alone, love to cook and I don't need to make enough for 8 people. This saved me from wasting so much food!
Have to enter an entire recipe in order to convert. Not practical when sometimes all you want is a quick conversion.
I have fun using the program, it does take a while to get the recepie in but I think it helps me learn it. I do wish it had an option to add a pinch. Other than that it is really nice. Thank you for taking the time to create it and God bless you! :-)
I've been looking for a product that can translate entire recipes. This is it! Perfect!
