Pastry fork
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A pastry fork is a small fork designed for eating pastries and other desserts while holding a plate.
It is typically designed so that it can be used with the right hand, while the left hand holds the plate. It therefore has the left side widened to be used like a knife to cut the food when pressed down on the plate. Left-handed pastry forks have the right side widened instead.[1]
Anna M. Mangin was awarded a patent on March 1, 1892, for a pastry fork for mixing pastry dough.[2]
