Small offset spatula

Spreads frosting smoothly and lifts delicate cookies.

What it is and why it matters

An offset spatula has a thin, bent blade that keeps your knuckles off the food. It spreads frosting smoothly on cakes and bars and lifts delicate cookies off a tray. A small one is handy for spreading fillings too.
