The most commonly used spoon in most houses the dessertspoon is probably what you're used to eating your breakfast with. It is similar in volume to a soup spoon but of the same shape as a tablespoon or teaspoon. It is in between these two in relative size.

It is not to be confused with the tablespoon, which is used for serving.
