About these units
Fluid Ounce (US) (fl oz (US))
A US fluid ounce is approximately 29.5735 milliliters. It is not a unit of weight, despite sometimes being confused with the avoirdupois ounce. In beverage serving sizes, cooking, and pharmaceuticals, the fluid ounce provides a flexible unit for small to medium volumes. It serves as the basis for bartending measurements, packaging labels, and nutritional information. Its precise value derives from the US gallon, making the fluid ounce a key link in the US customary volume system.
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.
