ABSTRACT:
A ladle including: a concave peripheral wall having a wall peripheral edge delimiting a containment volume. The ladle peripheral wall includes a pouring section for facilitating the pouring out of foodstuff from the containment volume. The pouring section has a symmetrically concave configuration. A collecting section is provided for facilitating the collection of foodstuff from a container into the containment volume. The collecting section defines a scraping sub-section wherein the wall peripheral edge has a substantially rectilinear configuration, the scraping subsection extending integrally from the pouring section. The collecting section also defines a cornering sub-section wherein the wall peripheral edge has a substantially convex configuration, the cornering sub-section extending integrally from the scraping sub-section. A handle extends from the ladle peripheral wall intermediate the pouring section and the cornering sub-section. The scraping subsection is usable for both scooping foodstuff located substantially adjacent the container base wall into the containment volume and scraping foodstuff from at least a portion of the container base wall.
