- A tablespoon here is the 15 ml metric standard, about 16.67 to a metric cup, the same size as a UK tablespoon. A US tablespoon is smaller at 14.79 ml, so US cooks measuring with US spoons need slightly more. An Australian tablespoon is larger at 20 ml, so it holds about a third more.

- One metric tablespoon of baking powder weighs about 12 grams. A US tablespoon (14.79 ml) holds about 11.8 grams and an Australian tablespoon (20 ml) about 16 grams.
- With a leavener like baking powder this matters: a tablespoon is a small amount and the chemistry is unforgiving. Too much and the bake domes, cracks, then sinks with a soapy tang. Too little and it stays dense. Use a real measuring spoon and level the top.

They are not a 1:1 swap: to replace baking powder with baking soda you need to add an acid such as cream of tartar, and use about a third of the amount.
