Setup, Compatibility & Care
There is no complex setup required for this product; the tongs arrive ready for immediate use. For longevity, ensure the tongs are rinsed after use to prevent sticky residue from sugar buildup.

Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these can scratch the stainless steel surface over time.
