The Talking Measuring Cup

This is the measuring cup that verbally announces the volume of wet or dry ingredients, eliminating the need for cooks to estimate by eye. When set in its base, the cup states how much has been poured into it in a clear female voice—1 1/4 cups is spoken as "one and one-fourth cups". Tare function lets chefs add multiple ingredients without emptying the cup. The cup can also compensate for items with different densities, such as water, oil, milk, flour, and sugar to ensure recipes are followed precisely. Readings can be stated in volume (cups or milliliters) or weight (ounces or grams). The three-cup capacity cup is made of unbreakable frosted plastic, has a removable flip-up lid, and is microwave and dishwasher safe for easy use and clean-up. Base wipes clean. Requires two AAA batteries. 6" H x 7" W x 5" D. (1 1/4 lbs.)
