Angled Spatula in Stainless Steel – 20 cm
The essential tool for flawless smoothing
The 20 cm bent spatula is the basic tool every baker, amateur or professional, must have. Its specific angled design is the key to applying and spreading your creams, ganaches, and icings with surgical precision, without ever touching the cake’s surface with your fingers.
Why choose this angled spatula?
-
Ergonomics and Comfort: The curve of the blade allows smoothing flat surfaces while keeping your hand raised. This ensures full control and prevents marking the cream with your knuckles.
-
Versatility in Work: Ideal for evenly spreading mixtures on the top and sides of layered desserts, as well as for filling pastry frames smoothly.
-
Durable Material: Made of high-quality stainless steel, it offers optimal flexibility while being sturdy enough to handle denser mixtures like buttercream or modeling chocolate.
-
Hygiene: Fully dishwasher safe for quick and effective cleaning.

Techniques and Decoration Ideas
Don’t just spread, be creative with your spatula:
-
“Naked Cake” Smoothing: Use the blade to finely scrape the cream on the edges of the cake. This reveals the biscuit through the cream for a rustic and modern look that is very trendy.
-
Texture Effects: Once your cream is applied, make back-and-forth or wave-like movements with the tip of the spatula to create geometric patterns or a natural “wave” effect.
-
Delicate Handling: The thin stainless blade allows you to slip the tool under fragile elements (chocolate decorations, sugar flowers) to move them without breaking.
Patissland Expert’s Opinion: The 20 cm blade is the most versatile “standard” size. It is long enough to smooth a 25 cm diameter cake in a few strokes, while remaining manageable enough for more precise work.
