Kitchen Aids Made of Enamel

Keep children from plunging hot enamelled kitchen utensils in cold water immediately after use. That can cause damage to the enamel.

The utensils are not suitable for children under three years of age. If used inappropriately sharp pieces of the enamel could break off, posing a danger to the throat if swallowed.

The Story of the Soup-Kaspar( the “Suppen-Kaspar”) begins when a healthy, strong boy proclaims that he will no longer eat his soup; he wastes away and finally dies over the next five days. The story is part of “Der Struwwelpeter” (first published 1845), a once-famous German children’s book by Heinrich Hoffmann. Hofmann demonstrates in ten illustrated and rhymed stories the disastrous consequences of misbehaviour in a wildly exaggerated way. Far from the moral assumptions of this precursor to comic books, we assume, when children cook (or help out in the kitchen), they have more fun eating. Maybe genuine participation leads from the protest (“Yuck, spinach!“) to a curiosity for unknown dishes (“Wow, I like curry!“). 


The utensils of our selection for children helping in the kitchen fulfil all the criteria for quality which apply to cookware for adults: The pots, pans, and kitchen utensils are made from steel and thoroughly enamelled. Their enamel layer is very resilient and scratchproof. We have the cooking spoons turned from wood to dispense with plastic and the kitchen knives  – with rounded knife points  – made by Robert Herder in Solingen (just like many adult’s knives in our range).
