The dippers are metallic gray aluminum with a plastic dome-shaped cap on the base of the handle. ?Pampered Chef? is imprinted in the cap. The ice cream dippers measure around seven inches in length. A non-toxic liquid is sealed inside the handle of the product which conducts the heat of your hand to more easily scoop hard ice cream.Remedy
