How Many Ramekins Should I Buy?

Common Ramekin Sizes and Their Uses

As noted earlier, the most common and versatile size is the six-ounce ramekin. Other common sizes are one to two ounces, three to five ounces, seven to nine ounces, and 10 to 12 ounces.

What is a normal size ramekin?

Typical volume sizes are 90 ml, 135 ml, 150 ml, and even up to 200 ml (3 oz, 4 1/2 oz, 5 oz, 7 oz.) Ideally, if you'll use them and have room for them, it is good to have 3 sizes: small, medium and large. They are often sold in sets. That being said, ramekins are very hard to store because they don't stack well.
