This is the Swift equivalent for Rajneesh071's answer, using extensions

UIImage {
  func scaleToSize(aSize :CGSize) -> UIImage {
    if (CGSizeEqualToSize(self.size, aSize)) {
      return self
    }

    UIGraphicsBeginImageContextWithOptions(aSize, false, 0.0)
    self.drawInRect(CGRectMake(0.0, 0.0, aSize.width, aSize.height))
    let image = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext()
    UIGraphicsEndImageContext()
    return image
  }
}

Usage:

let image = UIImage(named: "Icon")
item.icon = image?.scaleToSize(CGSize(width: 30.0, height: 30.0))
