Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Lavender Bakehouse in Cheltenham needed to replace their old, unreliable mechanical scales. They required a precise and easy-to-clean solution for their intricate cake and pastry recipes that wouldn't take up precious counter space.
"This Vogue scale is brilliant. It’s accurate to the gram, which is vital for our macarons. The removable bowl is a lifesaver for cleaning, and because it’s so small, we can just tuck it away when we're done. It's made our prep so much more efficient."
Robert Davies – Head Baker
By using the Vogue DE121, the bakery has eliminated ingredient wastage and ensures every single bake meets their high standards for consistency.

Explore more from VogueHow the 'Add 'n' Weigh' Feature Streamlines Your Prep
Ever get fed up with using dozens of bowls just to measure out ingredients for one recipe? The 'Add 'n' Weigh' feature (also known as 'tare') is your secret weapon against clutter and extra washing up. In simple terms, it lets you reset the scale's display to zero at any point, even with ingredients already in the bowl.
Think of it like this: you place your bowl on the scale and press the 'tare' button. The display shows '0', completely ignoring the bowl's weight. Now, you add 250g of flour. Need to add 100g of sugar next? Just press 'tare' again. The display resets to '0', ready for you to weigh out the sugar in the very same bowl. It’s a simple function that makes following complex recipes faster, cleaner, and much more accurate. No more guesswork or mental maths required!
