We Stand Behind our Products
All of our products have been extensively tested in our kitchens to ensure that we are bringing our customers the best value possible. We have run our turners through the dishwasher hundreds of times before marking them dishwasher safe, and have cooked with our silicone utensils for years to verify their durability. Each detail is scrutinized and revamped by both our employees (and their families), so we are confident that we bring you the best possible products.
Our Story
Chef Craft was founded in 1985 by Peter Ernster. It was passed down the family through the generations. We have kept the same vision as the beginning: bringing our customers the best value based products that we can. Today, it means shifting towards sourcing products made with more sustainable materials like bamboo and wheat straw.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this measuring cup lightweight enough to pack in an RV or camper kitchen?
Yes. At only about 0.07 kg per cup, it adds almost no weight to your gear, which is ideal for RVs, campers, and travel trailers where every ounce counts.
Will the plastic crack in cold weather at a campsite?
The shatterproof plastic holds up well in typical outdoor temperatures, though it should be brought inside during freezing nights to keep it in top condition.
Can I use this cup for camp cooking over a camp stove?
Yes. It is great for measuring water, oil, pancake batter, and other ingredients at the camp stove, as long as you keep it away from direct flame.
Is the cup durable enough to handle bumps in a travel trailer?
Yes. The shatterproof plastic is designed to survive drops and bumps, which is exactly what happens in a moving travel trailer or boat galley.
Does the clear body help when cooking outdoors in low light?
Yes. The clear plastic lets you see the fill line even in dim campfire light, which is helpful for evening outdoor cooking.
Is this cup a good choice for an overlanding or van-life kitchen?
Yes. The lightweight, shatterproof build and nested storage make it perfect for the tight, mobile kitchens found in overland rigs and camper vans.
Can I take this cup on a picnic without worrying about breakage in transit?
Yes. Unlike glass, this plastic cup will not break if it slides around in a picnic basket or cooler during transport.
Is the cup easy to rinse and clean at a campsite with limited water?
Yes. A quick rinse with camp water and soap is enough, and the smooth plastic does not hold onto residue, so it is campsite-friendly.
Will the measurement markings stay readable after outdoor use?
Yes. The molded graduations are part of the plastic itself, so they will not rub off from sun, water, or normal outdoor exposure.
Does the easy-pour spout help when cooking outdoors on uneven surfaces?
Yes. The spout gives you control when pouring on a wobbly picnic table or tailgate, helping prevent spills on uneven outdoor surfaces.
How does this cup compare to a stainless steel measuring cup for camping?
Stainless steel is heavier, can dent, and gets hot in the sun. This plastic cup is lighter, cooler to the touch, and will not dent, which is a big plus outdoors.
Is this cup better than a collapsible silicone cup for outdoor use?
Unlike collapsible silicone cups that can flex and skew measurements, this rigid plastic cup gives you accurate, reliable measurements every time.
How does this compare to a glass cup for tailgating?
Glass is dangerous in a tailgate environment full of bumps and crowds. This shatterproof plastic cup is a much safer and lighter choice for tailgating.
Will the plastic hold odors from campfire cooking?
No. The smooth plastic does not absorb strong smells, and a quick wash with soap removes any campfire-related residue.
Can I pack multiple cups nested together to save space in a small RV drawer?
Yes. The 1-cup, 2-cup, and 4-cup sizes nest together, which is ideal for the small, tight storage spaces found in RVs and camper kitchens.
How do I read both US and metric measurements on this cup?
The cup has graduations molded into the side for both US cups and milliliters. Simply pour your ingredient to the line that matches the unit called for in your recipe.
Can I use this cup to measure both dry and liquid ingredients?
Yes. The clear body and easy-pour spout make it suitable for measuring dry ingredients like flour and sugar as well as liquids like milk, water, and oil.
How do I clean the measuring cup after use?
You can wash it by hand with warm soapy water or place it on the top rack of the dishwasher for hands-free cleaning.
Will this cup fit in a standard kitchen drawer with other measuring cups?
Yes. The 1-cup size is designed to nest with 2-cup and 4-cup versions of the same line, so it stacks compactly in a standard kitchen drawer.
Is this cup compatible with microwave use for melting butter or chocolate?
It is designed for measuring, not for microwave heating. For melting, transfer ingredients to a microwave-safe container to protect the cup.
What is included when I order this measuring cup?
You will receive one Chef Craft Select plastic measuring cup in the size you select, with clear US and metric graduations molded into the body.
Is plastic food safe compared to glass or metal?
Yes. The cup is made from food-safe plastic that is lightweight, shatterproof, and suitable for everyday measuring of common baking and cooking ingredients.
Will the cup stain from ingredients like tomato sauce or turmeric?
The clear plastic resists most staining with normal use, and prompt washing after use will keep it looking clear over time.
What is the difference between a plastic measuring cup and a dry measuring cup set?
A dry measuring cup set usually includes nested cups meant to be filled to the brim and leveled off, while a plastic liquid measuring cup like this one has a spout for pouring and clear graduations for reading volume at a glance.
