Once a week we try to have a fun post that isn’t so serious. Because being just serious about cutlery can get pretty boring and pretty weird for that matter (so I’m told). But staying on track with weird I present to you a picture of my niece Hayley showing her amazing spoon trick. I promised to post this about 5 years ago, sorry for the delay Hayley 🙂
I’ve been looking for these for a long time, not sure why it took so long to find. First up though, these are not “Lego” brand but they are compatible. This lego cutlery set (lower case L) is a fork, knife and spoon that are half way between child and adult size (each piece is about size inches long). Good for kids in their lunch bags and great for adults for dessert at work. And if you have big hands, just add more legos to make the handle into whatever shape, size or construction you want. The flatware is stainless steel with handles that are made of silicone and the set is dishwasher safe.
I came across this unique piece of cutlery by accident, I was looking for a children stainless steel flatware set that was all smooth corners and safe for little hands and little mouths. Instead I stumbled across this, the Ultimate Cookie Spoon!
This BPA free cookie cradle comes in five possible colors and allows you to safely and securely dip your favorite cookie (probably Oreo) into your milk without wet fingers or broken or lost cookie bits.
An interesting quote from the creator: “My favorite snack as a kid was Oreos and milk, but they would always break and fall into the milk if I dunked them for too long! As an adult, I still had the same problem so I set out to solve the issue and created the Dipr. Now, all ages can enjoy the dunking experience without losing their cookies!”
Yes, this is a one use piece of kitchen cutlery, but it’s for cookies! Think about the cookies!
The Dipr the Ultimate Cookie Spoon
I cannot tell you how many times I’ve bent and destroyed a perfectly good kitchen spoon while trying to scoop ice cream. Then there are the cheap plastic ice cream scoops that have snapped apart in my hands leaving shards of plastic in my precious ice cream. Then the so-called easy serve scoops that have those little levers that are supposed to force out the ball of ice cream. That broke too.
None of them work and leave me screaming about ice cream (see what I did there?).
The best ice cream scoop from OXO is solid stainless steel and has a slightly pointed tip to dig into that hard ice cream. It has a non-slip grip that works for the left and right handed people in the family. Leave it in clean hot water for a while and that solid piece of stainless will warm up to do an even better job on really sub-zero ice cream.
