The Mini Spatula was one of my earliest spatula shapes, first made around 2016.

I only produced it for a short period before retiring it — but after friends telling me it was their most-used and most-missed piece, I’ve recently brought it back into the collection.

Compact, light, and extremely versatile, this is a spatula people reach for more often than they expect.

Why it works so well

  • Slim profile makes it easy to manoeuvre in small pans

  • Sharp mitred edge for clean lifting and turning

  • Ideal for eggs, vegetables, fish, and small portions

  • Comfortable to use one-handed

  • Small enough to pack — a favourite for camping and travel cooking

Once you get used to its size and precision, it becomes an everyday tool rather than a “small” one.

To care for your handmade spatula hand wash in warm soapy water, do not put your spatula in the dishwasher or leave soaking in water. Keep out of direct sunlight.

All wooden Kitchen Utensils are finished with food safe New Zealand made beeswax. If you would like to refinish your Spatula you can use beeswax or a Coconut Oil. Using a cloth massage in the oil, let the utensil sit (this can be anywhere from 5minutes to overnight), then buff off with a dry cloth.

Each item is individually hand made, and is completely unique in form and grain. The piece you buy is one of a kind, therefore your purchase will vary slightly from the product image.
