Before this cake leaves the kitchen
A few things worth knowing before this cake leaves the kitchen. Cream cheese frostings and anything with whipped cream need refrigeration, and plain buttercream softens in a warm room long before it is unsafe, which is a structural problem rather than a health one. Royal icing made with raw egg white, and mousses set with raw egg, are worth swapping for pasteurised egg white or meringue powder when you are baking for children, older guests or anyone pregnant. If you are baking for other people, ask about allergies before you start rather than after, because cross contact happens at the mixing bowl and not at the table. And if you are selling rather than giving cakes away, that is governed by your state cottage food law, which varies a great deal and is worth reading once properly.

Questions people ask
- Is the OXO Good Grips 11 Pound Stainless Steel Food Scale with Pull-Out Display worth the price?
- That depends entirely on what you are making, which is why this page gives you the figures rather than a verdict. It is built for weighing into large bowls, and if that is not what you do then something cheaper will serve you better. Nothing here was tested in person, so treat it as specification analysis rather than a review.
- Where do these specifications come from?
- From the manufacturer listing, unchanged. Nothing on this page was measured by us and nothing was estimated to fill a gap: a specification the manufacturer does not publish is shown as not published. The derived figures in the second table are calculated from those published numbers using the same functions the calculators on this site use.
- How current is the price?
- It is the figure the Amazon catalogue returned when this page was built, and Amazon prices move constantly, sometimes several times a week. Treat it as an order of magnitude rather than a quote and check the current price before buying. Where no price is shown, the listing did not publish one at build time.
