Improved kitchen utensils

摘要

A utensil suitable for use in shaping or smoothing an edible material or a non-edible modelling material and which is characterised in that it has a micro texture on the surface, or a part of the surface, that contacts the material when the utensil is being used. The material may be an edible material of the type used to coat and decorate cakes. The utensil may be a smoother or a rolling pin. The micro texture is preferably undulating with convex and concave features that are rounded and flow smoothly from one to another. The presence of the micro texture has been found to lessen the tendency of the material to adhere to the utensil and makes it easier for the user to create a very smooth finish to a coating of icing on a cake.
