I have all types of measuring utensils which I use to measure the ingredients for baking or cooking.  I use Tupperware measuring cups & spoons to measure my solid foods such as flour, brown sugar and all the different spices.  I use glass measuring cups to measure my liquids – water, milk and oil.  The measuring utensil that I really enjoying using is the Metric Wonder Cup. I found out about this utensil several years ago from a friend at work.

The Metric Wonder Cup can be used for both dry & wet ingredients.  I mainly use it for shortening, peanut butter, honey or any other hard to measure ingredients.  It measures fractions of cups, ounces, tablespoons, teaspoons as well as metric units.  You fill the container with the ingredient to the brim, level it off with the back of a knife or spatula; then you would push the container up to remove the ingredient.   I feel that this is more accurate than using a measuring cup and not near as messy.
