How to measure out ingredients without scales

[Pennies]

Am baking today and my scales have broken. I need to measure out the following...

375g self raising flour
185g plain flour
375g caster sugar

How do I do it without scales - there must be some way...!

could you convert it to cups?

ok 25g of flour is equivalent to a headed tablespoon. think sugar being heavier is a sort of flattened tablespoon. Thats what I was taught in home ed 22 years ago and its stood me in good stead. In any case as long as the proportions are in balance you should be ok.

Thanks meomix - will give it a go.
