For the man who loves to cook, this creative cooking utensil comes in three superhero-esque parts; three slide-on finger spatulas for the thumb, index and middle fingers to enable the ultimate hands-on cooking experience. This Superhero Spatula set by Joshua Brassé is a quirky yet brilliant kitchen tool.

The name of the product was inspired by superheros who are always striving to be stronger, faster and better. “And now, not unlike Superman himself -- reaching into fire to grab his glasses -- we can saute, whisk, flip and shuffle with our fingers like the men of steel we may or may not be,” said the creator.

Brassé is an industrial designer-turned-entrepreneur who has dedicated the last 10 years to useful inventions. These finger spatulas are now available online at ideascious.com for $38 a pop.
