Slider Spoons

One of the most important parts of the baking process and one of the most common causes of problems is measuring out ingredients. It is often difficult to level out the ingredients in the spoon, requiring the use of an extra finger or knife that can also cause a greater mess especially with materials such as flour. The Slider Spoons solve this issue. By having one measuring spoon stacked on top of the other, with the ergonomic half sphere shapes flush against each other, all it takes to get an accurate measurement is one slide. When you want to use one of the spoons, just turn the handle of the other one until it is extended and out of the way, and scoop up the required ingredient in the first spoon. Then take the second upside down one and just slide it over the first, sliding off any excess material. The edges of the spoons are designed to line up perfectly so that you end up with a filled spoon that is completely flat at the top. With the volume designed to be accurate to the thousandths place, the resulting half sphere will give you the correct measurement needed for whatever recipe you’re making. This design only includes a teaspoon and a tablespoon, but by making the connector piece longer, the Slider Spoons have the potential to include more pairs of others sized measuring spoons.
