Glass, Metal and Ceramic Measuring Cups for the Kitchen

Preparing a meal or dessert? Use measuring cups to accurately portion solids and liquids to ensure your recipe turns out right. Constructed of durable materials, choose a set that complements your kitchen. For instance, if you have stainless steel cookware, opt for measuring cups made of the same material for a unified look. Does your kitchen have a colorful theme? Precisely measure dried goods in 1/4-, 1/2-, 1/3- and 1-cup increments using vibrant ceramic measuring cups instead. In modern kitchens with metallic whisks and spoons, gold or copper cups accentuate the look. Remember microwave-safe glass measuring cups, too. Featuring handles and spouts, they allow you to measure and pour liquids with ease when cooking and baking, as well as work with hot ingredients. If you're an intrepid baker or seasoned home chef, consider owning more than one set of measuring cups for convenience when preparing multiple dishes at a time. Add a set of measuring bowls and baking utensils to effortlessly blend ingredients to the proper consistency. For baked desserts, consider a ceramic baking pan or cookie sheet for use alongside your measuring cups.
