Stalgast Tea Spoon 351 for Professional Use

A tea spoon designed for frequent use in professional kitchens and dining services, where consistent performance and hygiene are essential. Unlike larger serving spoons, it is sized for individual portions, making it suitable for tea, coffee, desserts and small condiment servings. The spoon operates by holding a measured quantity of liquid or semi-solid food, allowing controlled transfer from dish to mouth or from container to plate. Its shallow bowl and tapered handle provide balance, reducing spillage and operator fatigue during extended service periods. To use, the operator scoops the desired amount, lifts and transfers it without dripping. The smooth edges and polished surface prevent food adhesion, ensuring quick release and minimal waste. Constructed from 18/0 stainless steel, the spoon resists corrosion, staining and pitting even after repeated washing cycles. The grade indicates a composition of 18% chromium and 0% nickel, which maintains brightness and structural integrity under commercial dishwasher conditions. The single control feature is the handle, which allows the operator to grip, manoeuvre and position the spoon with precision. Its length of 137 mm provides sufficient reach for standard cups and bowls while remaining compact enough for organised storage in cutlery trays. The 137 mm length determines the types of vessels it can access: standard tea cups, espresso cups and small dessert bowls. It also influences storage density, allowing multiple spoons to be stacked or racked without occupying excessive space. The seamless inox blade lets hot water and detergent reach every curve without trapping tea residue. The 18/0 stainless steel withstands high-temperature washing and chemical sanitisers without degrading. The absence of crevices or joints means no food particles become trapped, simplifying manual or automated cleaning routines. The product is categorised as a table knife within the Stalgast range, positioned for front-of-house service and beverage stations in hotels, cafés and catering operations.
