With its squared blade, the spade easily scoops ice cream out of round or square containers alike. Waste-conscious dairy lovers no longer have to fret about leaving unscooped ice cream in the corners of their containers. The spade's thick handles are comfortable for large and small hands, and its self-defrosting handle (which responds to heat from the user's hand) releases the ice cream smoothly. The Museum of Modern Art in New York City has displayed Zeroll's ice-cream scoops in recognition of their beauty and simplicity. The sleek metallic spade has no moving parts to wear out or break, and is sturdy enough to last indefinitely. Review: Great Product...can't say enough good things about it - I had one of these Zeroll Ice Cream Spades through the 80's and 90's along with their 3" scoop. The spade somehow lost it's de-icer capability so it wound up in the recycle bin. I still have the 3" scoop which is great for making ice cream cones...it is about 25 years old...and decided that I would like to have another spade. Found it at desertcart and have used it many times since it arrived. Ice cream will not stick to the aluminum surface and the spade makes it quick and easy to get LOTS of ice cream into a bowl or other container. Follow the care instructions that come with the spade! Do not put any of the Zeroll ice cream scoops or spades in the dish washer as the heat will destroy the chemicals in the handle that allow for the ice cream to slide right off. Just hand wash and dry and it will last for years. Review: Ice Cream Master! - This ice cream scoop will take on any type of ice cream there is! No ice cream is safe in it's carton with this scoop around! This scoop will tackle any freezer's effect on any type of ice cream and it doesn't take much muscle power. Gone are the days of bent wrists and whole scoops of delicious ice cream rolling down the kitchen floor to their deaths! I highly recommend this scoop to anyone who can no longer scoop ice cream with the traditional ice cream scoop. Anyone who lacks the strength or is suffering from any type of arthritis will love this scoop. If you love ice cream, I know you will be enjoying a lot more of it if you own this scoop!
