There is no set of measuring spoons in France, and no name for them that I know of.

Recipes may reference ingredients in quantities such as:

"une cuillère à café" (a coffee spoon, the smallest)

"une cuillère" (a normal tea or small dessert spoon)

"une cuillère à soupe" (a soup spoon, the largest spoon)

Every house is supposed to have at least the latter two sorts of spoons, so they don't sell special measuring spoons.

Additionally, recipes may add the adjectives "pleine" (full) or "rase" (flat, leveled).

Most recipes nowadays mention precise quantities in grams, not subjective spoon sizes.

I would probably translate "measuring spoons" as "cuillères doseuses" if I had to.
