The best spatula you’ll ever own… {GIR Spatula – Giveaway!} – CLOSED

I got my hands on a sample of this brand-new multi-purpose kitchen tool by GIR (gear that Get’s It Right) and I totally fell in love. When I first got it, I was kinda like, “whatever, another spatula”… until I was frustrated trying to coax sticky dough out of my KitchenAid with a spatula I owned that was just too floppy.

I unwrapped the GIR spatula, gave it a soapy rinse, and applied it to the task. It was PERFECT. Because it is one solid piece of molded silicone, with a reinforcement that goes all the way through the centre to within a few centimetres from the tip, it flexes beautifully around the curves of a bowl, but it’s still strong enough to really work with. And… it’s so pretty!

Since that moment last week, I’ve used it a bajillion times. It has scrambled eggs, sauteed vegetables, folded cranberries into muffins, frosted a chocolate cake, and as we speak, it is applying peanut butter to a banana for a snack.

It’s heatproof up to 464 degrees F, dishwasher safe (Woohoo! Boo spatulas with wooden handles), and because it’s one solid piece of silicone with no detaching head, there’s no nasty little hiding places for bits of food to lodge themselves and grow bacteria.

When I went nuts about how much I loved it, they offered me THREE MORE for my readers, yay! If you win, you can choose your colour: light pink, hot pink, red, orange, yellow, green, blue, light blue, purple, gray, or black.
