Play Happy - Formally The Special Needs Homeschool Family

I have a few favorite cooking gadgets in my kitchen. I have a few others that I thought were incredibly cool and turned out to really be useless to me and ended up in a free box at a garage sale. But this little dandy is not in the free box. No, no this is my favorite little item - the Kitchen Scraper.

Yes my handy-dandy Pampered Chef scraper is something I really love. In fact my old one got lost by a little person so I spent way too much on shipping to buy another off of ebay. This little tool is so helpful in cleaning up messes, especially if you are baking and using flour.

I have had times when I didn't bake something specifically because I hated the mess caused by the flour and the cleanup of it. I hated how the flour would turn into goo when hit by your kitchen sponge or rag. It was gross, ruined my sponge, and there were always spots I missed due to the flour turning to glue and sticking to my counter.

My scraper makes cleanup so easy. All I do now is bring my garbage can to the edge and scrape the flour leftovers in the can. Presto, my counter is clean without a goo mess!

Next to my pastry tool, this is my must-have for baking. I'm sure that kitchen stores sell a generic version of this, but I personally love the Pampered Chef one.

Happy baking!

Janelle

Check ebay! I have seen them there or a kitchen store. When I lost mine, I looked at Target and Walmart and they don't carry them.

Hi, I'm new to all this blog stuff and I just happened across yours. I really like the way it's so organized and informative. BTW, my pastry scaper is my favorite tool also. Mine is stainless and I use it to cut sandwiches, scrape dried food off the counter, etc. Oh, and also for pastry : )

Have a great one,

Jennifer

Great idea! I really like Pampered Chef products and my MIL buys them for gifts...I'll have to hint. :-) Not really but this looks great!
