This document discusses several kitchen tools used in baking and food preparation: - A spatula is a small, flat implement used to mix, spread, and lift foods, as well as other materials like paint or plaster. It derives its name from a Latin word meaning flat piece of wood. - A pastry blender is used to cut solid fat like butter or shortening into flour to make pastries. It has narrow metal strips or wires attached to a handle. - A rolling pin is used to shape and flatten dough, and comes in roller or rod styles made of various materials.

1. Spatula
The term spatula is used to refer to various small implements with a broad, flat, flexible blade
used to mix, spread and lift materials including foods, drugs, plaster and paints. The term
derives from the Latin word for a flat piece of wood or splint (a diminutive form of the Latin
spatha, meaning broadsword), and hence can also refer to a tongue depressor. The words
spade (digging tool) and spathe are similarly derived. The word spatula is known to have
been used in English since 1525.
Scrapper
pastry scrapers, are more rigid implements, often made of a metal rectangle with a wooden,
plastic, or metal handle running along one long edge not only for more comfortable grip, but
also to add rigidity; some bowl scrapers, however, are designed to be stiff enough to serve a
dual purpose and are sold as such. Occasionally, an implement resembling a putty knife is
sold for this purpose.This implement is used to manipulate raw dough, by scraping it from a
surface on which it has been rolled, as well as to slice it. It can also be called a spatula.
Pastry blender
A pastry blender or pastry cutter is a kitchen tool used to mix a hard (solid) fat into flour in
order to make pastries.[1] The tool is usually made of narrow metal strips or wires attached to
a handle, and is used by pressing down on the items to be mixed (known as "cutting in"). It is
also used to break these fats (shortening, butter, lard) into smaller pieces.
Rolling pin
A rolling pin is a cylindrical food preparation utensil used to shape and flatten dough. Two
styles of rolling pins are found; roller and rods. Roller types consists of a thick cylindrical
roller with small handles at each end; rod type rolling pins are usually thin tapered batons.
Rolling pins of different styles and materials offer advantages over another, as they are used
for different tasks in cooking and baking.

2. Egg Beaters

eggs. Egg Beaters is primarily egg whites with added flavorings, vitamins and thickeners
Xantham gum and guar gum.] It contains no egg yolks.
Pastry brush
A pastry brush, also known as a basting brush, is a cooking utensil used to spread oil or
glaze on food. Traditional pastry brushes are made with natural bristles or a plastic or nylon
fiber similar to a paint brush, while modern kitchen brushes may have silicone bristles. In
baking breads and pastries, a pastry brush is used to spread a glaze or egg wash on the
crust or surface of the food.[1] In roasting meats, a pastry brush may be used to sop up juices
or drippings from under pan and spread them on the surface of the meat to crisp the skin
Cookie cutter
A cookie cutter in American English and biscuit cutter in Commonwealth English is a tool to
cut out cookie/biscuit dough in a particular shape. They are often used for seasonal
occasions when well-known decorative shapes are desired, or for large batches of cookies
where simplicity and uniformity are required. Cookie cutters have also been used for, among
other uses, cutting and shaping tea sandwiches.
Wooden spoon

3. Pastry Wheel
A pastry wheel is a tool which is used to cut, shape, or mold pastry. Pastry wheels come in a
number of forms, from cutters which are designed to produce uniform strips of pastry to pie
crimpers. Some companies even make pastry wheels with removable inserts, allowing
bakers to choose from a number of options. If you do much baking, a pastry wheel is a very
useful thing to have around, and well worth the cost, since these tools are generally
inexpensive.
