Serving utensil with integral scraper

摘要

A serving utensil for cakes and pies has a broad, flat blade with a slanted, upwardly extending rear portion and a tang extending rearwardly therefrom. An extendable planar scraper element is positioned in front of the slanted rear portion of the blade with a stem extending rearwardly through an opening in the slanted portion of the blade under the tang with a spring connected to the stem and to the tang to bias the scraper rearwardly. The scraper is normally positioned above the surface of the blade, but is is moveable downard to the blade and forward by a user's thumb pressure. A removable handle is slideably mounted on the tang and encloses the scraper stem and spring under the tang.
