Know before you buy
Yes, the Japanese stainless steel blade is designed specifically for high flexibility, allowing you to smooth frostings and navigate tight corners on cupcakes or cookies with precision.
Yes, this spatula is dishwasher safe. However, because it features a wood handle, hand washing is often recommended to maintain the finish and longevity of the wood over time.
With a total length of 10.75 inches and a 6-inch blade, this tool is sized perfectly for smaller-scale projects like decorating cookies, cupcakes, and detailed cake work rather than covering large surface areas.
The handle is crafted from wood and shaped to provide a secure, ergonomic grip, which helps maintain control and reduces hand fatigue during intricate decorating tasks.
This is primarily an icing spatula designed for spreading, smoothing, and detailing. Its high flexibility makes it excellent for frosting, but it is not intended for lifting heavy items like cakes or cookies.
