Abstract
A whisk wiper, a device having a a plurality of intersecting slits angularly disposed in an asterisk type pattern, is mounted onto a whisk. It is pulled down over the loops 44, each loop 44 guided through a slit 32. To clean off mixture 50 stuck to the whisk 46 the whisk wiper 30 is simply pulled off, the opposed edges of each slit 32 wiping the loops 44 clean, the removed mixture 50 collected on the top side of the whisk wiper 30 so it can be then returned to the mixing bowl 52. The whisk wiper 30 is also a splash guard, support to hang the whisk 46 on the edge of a bowl, keeps the whisks loops up off the surface when the whisk is set down and the outer edge 40 can be used to wipe out the mixing bowl 52. Additionally the whisk wiper can be configured to be turned inside out to allow the slits to be easily cleaned.
Claims20
A method for wiping a whisk comprising the steps of:
- providing a whisk, said whisk comprising loops attached to a base;
- providing a whisk wiper, said whisk wiper comprising slits;
- mounting said whisk wiper onto said whisk by pushing said loops through said slits, pulling said whisk wiper toward said base, thereby exposing said loops beyond said whisk wiper;
- causing said loops to contact a mixture, thereby causing some of said mixture to adhere to said loops;
- pulling said whisk wiper away from said base and off of said whisk, thereby wiping said material off of said loops with said slits.
A whisk with whisk wiper device comprising:
- a whisk, said whisk comprising a plurality of loops attached to a base, said loops having a widest part;
- a whisk wiper, said whisk wiper comprising a plurality of slits;
- said whisk wiper being mounted onto said whisk with said loops passing through said slits, said loops being exposed beyond said slits, said whisk wiper being configured to be movable past said widest part of said loops.
A whisk and wiper device comprising:
- a whisk, said whisk comprising a plurality of loops attached to a base, said plurality of loops being in an angularly spaced orientation;
- a wiper, said wiper comprising a central portion, said central portion comprising a flexible material, said central portion having a plurality of slits, said slits intersecting and being in angularly spaced orientation, said slits comprising opposed edges;
- whereby said wiper can be mounted onto said whisk with said loops passing through said slits, said whisk can be employed causing a mixture to adhere to said loops, said wiper can be pulled off of said loops, said opposed edges of said slits wiping said mixture off of said loops.
