Designed specifically for professional chefs and culinary enthusiasts, the Clifton Food Range Fine Tip Micro Tweezers are the ultimate tool for precision plate dressing and garnish placement. These tweezers allow for high-accuracy handling of delicate items like herbs, celery cress, and pea shoots, significantly improving kitchen hygiene by replacing finger-based plating.

FAQs
Are these dishwasher safe?
While the material is rust-resistant, it is highly recommended to hand wash these tweezers to preserve the precision of the tips and prevent them from banging against other utensils in the dishwasher.
Can I use these for hot items?
Yes, these are made for culinary use and can withstand standard heat levels found in professional kitchens during plating.
What is the total length of the tool?
The tweezers measure 130mm in length, which is the standard size for precise, close-range garnish work.
Can they handle heavier ingredients?
These are designed for fine, delicate items like herbs and shoots. They are not intended for lifting heavy proteins or large vegetables.
Do the tips eventually go dull?
Like any precision tool, the tips may lose their extreme sharpness if used roughly or dropped on hard surfaces. Proper storage is key to longevity.
Troubleshooting
Tips are no longer meeting perfectly at the end
Check if the arms have been accidentally splayed under pressure. Gently apply light pressure to realign the arms toward the center.
Visible spots or water stains on the finish
This is likely mineral buildup. Soak briefly in a mixture of white vinegar and water, then rinse thoroughly and dry immediately with a soft cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
These tweezers require no assembly and are ready for use immediately out of the packaging. To maintain the integrity of the tips and the finish of the metal:
- Cleaning: Hand wash with warm, soapy water after each use. Avoid abrasive scrubbers that could scratch the surface.
- Sanitization: Compatible with standard food-safe kitchen sanitizing solutions.
- Storage: Store in a dedicated knife roll, utensil rack, or protective sleeve to prevent the tips from striking other heavy kitchen tools, which could cause the points to dull or misalign.
