Vogue high heat spatula

Best professional style spatula

This lightweight spatula and its red handle are a familiar sight in professional kitchens. It has one flat edge and one curved corner for reaching every last drop of mixture when baking, but it is also suitable for use on pots and pans (including non-stick coatings) so can be used when cooking hot food. It is made from stain-resistant plastic to be durable and look new for longer, even in frequent use.

Mason Cash Innovative kitchen spatula

Best multi-use spatula

Short on drawer space? Get two spoons for the price and space of one with this clever and simple spatula from Mason Cash. The beechwood handle is double-ended with a large spoon at one end (for stirring and scraping mixing bowls), and small jar scraper at the other end (also useful for spreading icing on cupcakes). The spoon head can also be removed to be used as a bowl scraper without the handle – giving you lots of options.
