Premium Wooden Ramen & Laksa Spoon | Non-Toxic & Non-Reactive Dining Utensil
The Yompai 18cm Teak Soup Spoon is the ultimate choice for those who appreciate the finer details of dining. Specifically designed with a deep, rounded bowl, this spoon is engineered to hold a generous amount of broth and ingredients in every mouthful. Whether you are enjoying a steaming bowl of ramen, a spicy laksa, or a simple home-cooked vegetable soup, this spoon offers a warmer, more natural alternative to cold stainless steel.
Hand-carved from a single piece of premium Thai teak, this spoon is naturally moisture-resistant and won’t absorb flavors. Its ergonomic 18cm handle is perfectly balanced for individual use, providing a comfortable grip for both adults and children.
Why You’ll Love the Teak Soup Spoon
-
Deep-Bowl Design: Unlike flat dinner spoons, the deep cavity is specifically shaped to scoop up broth and chunky ingredients together—ideal for noodle soups.
-
Non-Reactive & Flavor-Pure: Teak wood does not react with hot or acidic liquids, ensuring you taste the complexity of your soup, not a metallic aftertaste
-
Naturally Heat Resistant: Wood is a natural insulator; the handle stays cool to the touch even in boiling hot broths, protecting your hands and lips.
-
100% Solid Teak Wood: Naturally antibacterial and incredibly durable. Teak is the gold standard for wooden kitchenware because it won't splinter or warp from moisture.
-
Gentle on Ceramics: Enjoy your meal in silence. These spoons won’t scratch your favorite ceramic bowls or create the "clinking" noise of metal cutlery.

Care & Maintenance
Proper care ensures your teak soup spoon remains a favorite for years:
-
Hand wash only with warm, soapy water.
-
Dry immediately to protect the natural beauty of the wood grain.

Avoid the dishwasher, as the high heat and steam can cause natural timber to dry out or crack.
-
Occasional Oiling: Apply a tiny amount of food-safe oil every few months to maintain the wood’s water-resistant properties.
