I’m not a baker, but I am an enthusiastic dough dabbler. Both kitchen amateurs and pros know that a tool can make the baking experience a pleasure or a chore. For us dabblers, a quality spatula can mean the difference between churning out cookies that keep them coming back for more and cookies that make them run for the hills.

When we set out to evaluate spatulas from best-selling brands like Gir and All-Clad, we realized quickly that “spatula” and “spoonula” are used interchangeably by some brands. Spatulas have an angled tip that is slightly flexible and ideal for mixing heavier doughs and scraping the sides of bowls with precision. Spoonulas, or spatula spoons, also have a somewhat flexible tip, but they are shaped more like a spoon. Spoonulas are great at handling more delicate batters and are better for scooping and flipping baked goods.
