Troubleshooting
Blade feels too flexible for a task.
For very stiff mixtures or heavy scraping, consider using a sturdier tool. This spatula is designed for finer tasks like frosting and mixing.
Frosting residue is difficult to remove.
Soak the spatula in warm water for a few minutes before washing. For stubborn residue, a soft brush can be used.
Spatula appears discolored.
Ensure the spatula is fully dried after washing, especially if left in the dishwasher. Mineral deposits from water can sometimes cause discoloration, which can usually be polished off with a soft cloth.
