Tovolo Mini Waffle Tongs get a hot waffle from the iron to the plate without burned fingers or torn squares. One arm ends in three curved silicone prongs and the other in a grid-shaped paddle, so the tips nestle into the waffle squares and grip from inside the grid. A beveled edge slides under the base and gently releases the waffle from the iron. At 8.5 inches long, the tongs give you the grip and control of a full-size set in a compact tool. The silicone tips resist heat to 400 degrees Fahrenheit and will not scratch a non-stick waffle iron or pan. A stainless steel frame gives the tongs strength, and a non-slip silicone grip on each arm keeps your hold steady. Pull the ring to lock the arms closed for drawer storage. The whole tool is dishwasher safe.
