Heat Resistant

Made in the USA and Eco Friendly
Epicurean kitchen utensils are exclusively manufactured in the United States of America. The handles are made of Richlite, a wood composite material comprised of a mixed source of wood fibers. The same durable laminate material is used in skateboard parks, which is where Epicurean has its roots. The Natural, Slate and RC100 materials are all certified by the Forest Stewardship Council.

Caring for Your Epicurean Kitchen Series Spoon
Your Epicurean Ladle is a wood product. To prevent warping, avoid prolonged exposure to wet conditions, and store it upright until dry. Though it is stain-resistant, some foods may leave color over time. To remove stubborn stains, use a non-abrasive household cleaner.
