Gifts For Bee Lovers
How much is a pinch of salt?
As most people didn’t have spoons small enough, a pinch of salt was traditionally defined as "the amount that can be taken between the thumb and forefinger". There are various opinions as to the precise quantity of a pinch of salt and either 1/16 or 1/8 teaspoon (0.3 or 0.6 ml) seem to be the most common.
If it helps, as a general rule there are two dashes in a tad, two pinches in a dash and two smidgens in a pinch. If not, our bee salt spoon holds 1.2 g (0.04 oz) of heaped salt, 0.6 g (0.02 oz) rounded and 0.4 g (0.01 oz) levelled.
The silver coloured Bee salt spoon is 8.5 cm (3.4”) long and comes packaged in an organza bag with care and usage instructions. However, if you select gift wrapping, the spoon will come in a gift wrapped black presentation box.
Spice Spoon
Each bee spice spoon is hand crafted from polished, solid lead-free pewter which is non-tarnishing (that was the lead in old pewter) and completely nickel-free and food safe.
Because our designs are all created in solid metal, the surface of your bee condiment spoon will never flake like a silver plated spoon. To clean, simply wash with warm soapy water.
All our designs are made exclusively by us in our own workshops in Salisbury, Wiltshire.
