FULLYWARE Matte Gold Demitasse Espresso Spoons

You can, but reviewers recommend against it if you want the finish to last. Hand washing is the way to go for maintaining the matte gold appearance long-term. Buyers who hand wash report the finish stays looking great without scratching or fading. It's a small trade-off for keeping them looking sharp, and since they're small spoons, hand washing only takes a few seconds.

This is actually one of the most popular alternative uses reviewers mention. The 4.7-inch size is perfect for scooping condiments, relishes, olives, nuts, and small portions on a charcuterie or grazing board. The matte gold finish looks classy alongside the spread, and having a set of 6 means you can dedicate one to each condiment. Multiple buyers specifically call out charcuterie board use as an unexpected highlight.

Reviewers have found a surprising number of uses beyond stirring espresso. They work well for charcuterie board condiments, buffet and entertaining service (small portions of nuts, olives, relishes), decorative display at a coffee station, and portioning yogurt or ice cream when you want smaller bites. The versatile size and attractive finish make them a multi-purpose serving tool, not just a single-use coffee accessory.

The consensus from reviewers is that these punch above their weight for the price. You get stainless steel construction, a finish that holds up over time, and a set of 6 — which is a solid value compared to higher-end sets that might cost two or three times as much for similar functionality. The main trade-off is that the packaging isn't premium and there's the occasional quality control concern (one report of sharp edges, one of thin construction). But for everyday and entertaining use, buyers overwhelmingly feel they're getting more than they paid for.

You'll want to be cautious here. One reviewer mentions sharp edges on the bowl of the spoon, which could be a concern for young children. While this was a single report and not a widespread issue, it's worth inspecting the edges when they arrive if you plan to let kids use them. For adult use, this hasn't been a significant complaint.

The spoons themselves are attractive enough for gifting — reviewers love the matte gold look and the quality feel. However, be aware that the packaging isn't gift-ready. At least one reviewer notes that shipping labels are visible on the packaging, so you'd want to repackage them in a gift box or bag if you're giving them as a present. The spoons are great; the out-of-box presentation needs a little help.

Yes, and reviewers specifically highlight this use case. The matte gold finish elevates a tea tray or formal service setup, and the 4.7-inch size is proportional to traditional teacups and saucers. They work as both stirring spoons and sugar spoons in a formal setting. If you're putting together an afternoon tea or hosting a tea party, these add a polished, cohesive look without the price tag of sterling silver or gold-plated flatware.

Reviewers consistently describe the matte gold satin finish as attractive and classy — seven buyers specifically mention it. The matte look is more understated and modern compared to shiny gold, which can look cheap or overly flashy. Design-conscious buyers tend to prefer the satin finish because it coordinates better with other tableware and entertaining accessories without being too loud. It also has the practical benefit of hiding fingerprints and minor wear better than a polished finish.

Stainless steel is the go-to material for demitasse spoons — it's durable, food-safe, and easy to clean. The FULLYWARE set is stainless steel with a matte gold satin finish, which gives you the durability of steel with a more upscale look. Reviewers consistently praise the quality for the price, calling them well-made and durable. The finish has held up without scratching or fading for multiple buyers, though hand washing is recommended to keep the matte gold looking its best long-term.

Demitasse spoons are designed for stirring sugar or cream into small servings — espresso, demitasse coffee, and formal tea service. But buyers of the FULLYWARE set have found they're surprisingly versatile beyond that. Reviewers use them for charcuterie boards, scooping condiments like relishes and olives, serving small portions at buffets, and even as decorative pieces displayed at a coffee station. They're also great for yogurt and ice cream when you want smaller bites.

A demitasse spoon is specifically sized for small cups — think espresso cups, demitasse cups, and small tea cups (8oz or less). A regular coffee spoon is longer to reach the bottom of a standard 10-12oz mug. The FULLYWARE demitasse spoons are 4.7 inches, which is perfect for espresso and small cup service but will be too short for full-size coffee mugs. If you primarily drink from standard mugs, you'll want regular coffee spoons instead.

For tea, the ideal spoon depends on your cup size. If you're using a traditional teacup (6-8oz), these FULLYWARE demitasse spoons are a great match — they're proportional to the cup and look elegant during formal tea service. Reviewers specifically highlight that the matte gold finish adds aesthetic appeal to tea and coffee setups. For larger mugs, though, you'd want a full-size teaspoon. At 4.7 inches, these are designed for smaller vessels.

These are demitasse spoons, not standard measuring teaspoons. While they're roughly in the teaspoon ballpark, they're not calibrated for precise measurement. If you need to measure exactly 1 tsp (5ml) of sugar or tea, use an actual measuring spoon. These are designed for stirring and serving, not for precise kitchen measurements.

You use a demitasse spoon the same way you'd use any small spoon — stir sugar or honey into your espresso or tea, scoop a small amount of cream, or sip a tasting portion. The FULLYWARE spoons stir beverages effectively according to reviewers, and they're sturdy enough for daily use despite their small size. One tip: hand wash them rather than tossing them in the dishwasher. Reviewers note the matte gold finish holds up well with hand washing, but dishwasher use may affect the finish over time.

Yes, the small spoon served alongside an espresso is a demitasse spoon ("demitasse" means "half cup" in French). The FULLYWARE set at 4.7 inches is the right size for authentic espresso and demitasse service. Reviewers confirm they're an appropriate size for this purpose, and the matte gold finish gives them a more polished look than the standard stainless steel you'd find at a café.
