A companion utensil to a cake knife, the Cake Server is used to place pieces of cut cake and pie on plates to be served. Often paired as a set with a Cake Server and Knife, this piece of silverware is most often made of plated silver or stainless steel, but can also be made of wood or plastic as well. The Cake Server is made in many different shapes and sizes, with a flat serving surface that is triangular shaped and attached to a straight or bent handle. Typically, the traditional servers used for formal events such as weddings, anniversaries or funerals will have a straight handle and will be made of either stainless steel or silver plated. Plastic and wood are generally a type of material that is used for general purpose serving duties or for casual parties.

Tong

Material     :  Stainless steel and or plastic

Cleaning    :  Soap and rinse with water flow

A kitchen utensil used to grasp food so it can be moved from one location to another to be flipped, rotated, adjusted, or retrieved from areas that may be hot or simply best handled with a Tong. Available as tension activated, spring loaded, or scissor type designs, there are many different tongs with sizes available for a variety of uses. Tongs are constructed of stainless steel, wood, nylon, aluminum, and other heat resistant materials with a few designs having plastic or silicon coated areas on the handles as well as the Tong tips to provide a more comfortable or secure hold when grasping and holding various food items. Tongs coated with soft, heat resistant silicon have an ability to gently grip foods such as eggs or tender vegetables for removal from boiling water and cooking pans. Most heat resistant silicon on utensils produced today can typically withstand temperatures in excess of 500ºF.
