Know before you buy
The hot pad is filled with real spices that release their fragrance when warmed by a hot dish or kettle. The scent becomes more noticeable as the heat intensifies.
The hot pad is designed to withstand heat from standard kitchenware, providing a protective barrier for your surfaces. At 0.5 inches thick, it effectively insulates your table or countertop from heat damage.
Because the product is filled with real spices, it is not machine washable. We recommend spot cleaning the fabric surface gently if needed to maintain the integrity of the filling.
The aroma is long-lasting, but it will naturally fade over time with repeated use and exposure to heat. To keep the scent fresh, store the hot pad in a sealed bag when not in use.
The hot pad measures 10 inches by 10 inches, making it a versatile size for most standard-sized pots, pans, and serving dishes.
