A spill proof shelf and a refrigerator using the same are disclosed. The shelf has a glass plate formed through a glass-slumping process. The shelf also has a metal bracket coupled to the plate for supporting the plate. The bracket provides an interface of the shelf with the refrigerator. The plate has a lower planar portion and an upper planar portion surrounding the lower planar portion. The upper planar portion is smoothly transitioned to the lower planar portion through the glass-slumping process, to define a central recess. The plate also has a side portion extending perpendicularly from the upper planar portion. In case food or beverage spill occurs, it will be confined in the recess.
