About these units
Dessertspoon (UK) (dessertspoon (UK))
A UK dessertspoon traditionally holds 10 milliliters, exactly double a teaspoon and two-thirds of a tablespoon. It served as an intermediate measure in older British recipes, frequently used before strict metrication took hold. Historically, its capacity varied between 8–12 mL, reflecting differences in cutlery styles and household practices. Many Victorian and Edwardian cookbooks reference dessertspoons extensively, making familiarity with the unit essential for culinary historians. Although largely obsolete in modern British cooking, the dessertspoon survives in heritage recipes, some baking traditions, and specialized kitchen contexts where small-to-medium quantities of liquid or spice must be measured.
Dekastere (dekastere)
The dekastere, equal to 10 steres or 10 cubic meters, is primarily used in forestry for measuring stacked firewood or lumber. In European countries like France, where the stere is still recognized, the dekastere is practical for describing commercial quantities of timber. Many forestry management plans and commercial firewood suppliers use the dekastere to track production and sales. Its size strikes a balance between comprehensibility and practicality, making it useful for both commercial and personal-scale timber transactions.
