There is wonderful flexibility built into the Yesign Spoon than allows it to change shape depending on the user's requirements. Made from a long, flat and thin piece of material, the designer gave it particular creases than enable enable you to transform it in a pinch.

When you begin to [fold the eating utensil](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fold-stool) longways and in half, the tip of it will automatically buckle to produce a tiny trough-like scooper. Hold the handle gently between your fingers and the implement will not lose its form. It will now serve effectively as a tool for dishing out [small portions of foods like sugar](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/al-malaky-royal). Conveniently keep the Yesign Spoon inside the jar by flattening it once more and simply sliding it down.
