Scaled Recipes: Tips for Success

Take even more control of your dining experience with our exciting new Scaled Recipes feature that lets you tailor your meals to your household size, so you can have it your way, every day.

With the ability to select internally Tested Serving Sizes or even customize and adapt serving sizes to match your needs, you can open a whole new world of possibilities, and servings!

Read on to learn more about the two types of Scaled Recipes on Cookidoo®, so you can cook for the right number of people sitting at your table!

What are Tested Serving Sizes?

On the recipe detail page, the most cooked and best rated recipes now come with multiple serving size options. These serving size options have all been internally tested and come with Thermomix® Guided Cooking.

Getting Started

On the recipe page, simply click on the “Serving size” button to check whether we have tested other serving sizes for your selected recipe. If you find a serving size you want to try, click on your desired serving size, and start cooking, it's that easy!

You can access Tested Serving Sizes from the recipe detail page on the Cookidoo® app, website and on your Thermomix® TM6®.

What are Automatically Adapted Serving Sizes?

If you’re a creative cook who can’t find the tested serving size you were looking for, no need to worry! Our new automatically adapted serving sizes utilizes Created Recipes and allows you to adjust the serving size of Cookidoo® recipes using our scaling technology and save them in your Created Recipes.

Getting Started

You can automatically scale existing Cookidoo® recipes by picking the recipe of your choice and opening the recipe detail page on the Cookidoo® app or website. Click on the “Serving size” button and then select "Make it your own” to adapt this recipe and save it in your Created Recipes

Please note: This feature is only available via the Recipe Detail page not from within Created Recipes. Automatically adapted serving sizes are NOT tested by Thermomix®. Review your automatically Created Recipe carefully. Not all aspects of a recipe can be scaled automatically.

Automatically Adapted Serving Sizes: Important Considerations

• Once a recipe is imported into Created Recipes, they are no longer official Vorwerk recipes. Please follow the general safety instructions and carefully monitor the cooking process to avoid accidents or injury.
• Do not exceed the maximum capacity of the mixing bowl (max. 2.2 liters), the Varoma or other accessories. Be extra cautious when you are using high temperatures and/or speeds.
• Always refer to your Thermomix® instruction manual for further safety information.
• Not all parts of the recipe will automatically adapt to the new serving size. For example, baking recipes where you prepare dough are generally set up for one baking sheet/form, so be sure to adapt the size of the baking sheet/form accordingly.
• You can review all the changes that were made to the recipe once it has gone through the automatically adapted serving size process. Carefully check each and every step and change, correct as needed, and scale any parts of the recipe that were not automatically adapted.
