Le Creuset Craft Large Spatula
The Le Creuset Craft Large Spatula is the bigger sibling in the Craft range, designed for the tasks where more surface area makes a real difference. The broad silicone head handles dense ingredients, large quantities, and generous scooping movements with ease, whilst remaining gentle on non-stick and enamelled surfaces. The wooden handle keeps the grip comfortable over heat, and the head detaches for dishwasher cleaning. If you regularly cook in larger pans or for more people, this is the spatula that will get the most use.
Features:
Removable dishwasher-safe head: The large silicone head detaches from the wooden handle for dishwasher cleaning, making thorough cleaning straightforward even after use with dense or sticky ingredients.
Heat resistant to 250 degrees C: The premium silicone is rated for use in the oven and microwave as well as on the hob, handling every stage of a recipe from start to finish.
Non-stick safe silicone: The flexible silicone head will not scratch or damage non-stick, enamelled, or stainless surfaces, keeping cookware in good condition over time.
Wooden handle for comfort: The wooden handle stays cooler than silicone or metal during cooking, remaining comfortable to hold during extended use over heat.
Larger head for bigger tasks: The larger head is designed for processing dense ingredients like dough and minced meat, or for stirring, scooping, and serving larger quantities in a single movement.

Questions and answers:
Can I leave the head attached when I wash it?
It is better to remove the head before washing. Water can become trapped between the silicone and the wooden handle, which can damage the wood over time. Separating the two parts ensures both clean and dry properly.
When should I choose this over the Medium Spatula?
The Large Spatula suits larger pans, bigger batches, and denser ingredients where the medium size does not quite have enough surface area to be effective. If you regularly cook for four or more people or work with large quantities of dough or minced meat, the large is the more practical choice for those tasks.
Is it safe on enamelled cast iron?
Yes. The silicone will not chip or scratch enamel, making it safe to use directly in Le Creuset cast iron casseroles and braisers.
