fantastic

all of these little silicone spatulas are fantastic. Much easier to use than a wooden spoon, can be used as a scraper for cake mix or hot cheese sauce. I have 4 different ones so far (and they last really well too). Will likely add to the collection from time to time. Get a couple for your student son or daughter for uni.

You can't go wrong with this, a combined Spatual/Spoon from Le Cresuet!

Available in a variety of colours, this is a really useful combined spoon/spatula from Le Creuset and an ideal replacement for those ageing, unhygenic wooden versions.

Check out the range of 'spatulas', available on Amazon, too!

5 Star Price, too!

Like the spatulas, once used, never forgotten!
So much more versatile than a wooden spoon, that bit of flexibility makes it an indespensable item for the kitchen drawer!
On Amazon at a great price, too - why not buy 2?!

Very large spatula, good replacement for a fish slice.

This is a wooden handled spatula with a very flexible BRIGHT orange silicone head, overall about 40cm long and the head must be about 11 - 12 cm. It's wonderfully versatile and very heat resistant (I have to admit when I first got one of the smaller le creuset spatulas similar to this one I was a little doubtful as the head's texture is rubbery you instinctively think it should melt, but you can lay it against the base of a hot frying pan without any adverse effects). I love the colour (especially good if you have any of the Le Creuset Volcanic range) as it is only the head that is orange and I like a splash of colour around my kitchen. The head is simplicity itself to clean, whether in the dishwasher or just the sink, because it is non-stick, so never gets very dirty, but beware that the handle cannot go into a dishwasher - it doesn't take much cleaning at all outside one, but if you go for fully dishwasher-proof every time you might not be so keen, although 5 seconds to give it a rub is all it generally needs. It is ideal for stirring non-stick pans, like a wooden spoon, but much more practical and hygienic, and of course can be used as a bog-standard spatula for scraping out a dish or pan's contents. Its flexibility also makes it more versatile than any of these things, though, and it can be used to scrape out just about any shape of dish or pan because of this (well the bigger ones, for maximum versatility team this up with one of the smaller headed spatulas).

As I said in the review title it is also useful instead of a fish slice as it is about the same size and shape (though in general a fish slice is better at getting fish out of a frying pan, this will not scratch the non-stick coating, so you have the choice).

I've got a full collection of these spatulas now and I use them all the time. They replace just about everything else that you would use in cooking on a hob except for a slotted spoon, and so, for all the spatulas are not cheap (neither are they extortionate), they are an excellent investment (have a look at all of the others in the range too). I can also recommend the cerise (cherry red not bright pink in this case) headed ones, which my mum has, these are another very attractive bright colour for a kitchen.

his is a really useful size of 'spatula' from 'Le Creuset'.

Not only is it far more hygienic than a wooden spoon, as it can withstand temperatures up to 800 degrees F/425 degrees C, but far more versatile, too.
The removable, flexible head is dishwasher safe, although it is seldom necessary, as it washes up a treat in hot, soapy water in the kitchen sink.
It will not scratch or damage any cookware surface.

Presented in a sealed pack it makes an excellent gift for the chef who already has everything!

Available in a variety of colours and sizes, at Amazon.co.uk, or treat yourself to the equally versatile 'silicone spoon'!

good but its not the one

after the inital disappointment of realising that this was a '13' and not a '14' inch spatula i was pleased to find this classic design spatula modestly nestled amongst the younger 'funkier' versions of this spatula. Although it looks like a street weapon or 'blade' if you will, this spatula marries the tastful mix of both a smooth spreadable spreadability and sterdy firm grip.


It looses out on 5 stars due to the 1 missing inch.
