An ice cream scoop having an ergonomically angled handle allowing a more natural use of the hand and wrist while scooping ice cream. The handle also may come with raised portions or ridges to improve grip on the handle by the user. At the end opposite the gripping area, there is a scooping bucket designed to bite into hard frozen ice cream and contain substantially ball shaped portions of that ice cream. The ice cream scoop is made of a durable food safe substance such as stainless steel or aluminum.

A heated scooping device provides efficient handling of dense comestibles. The device comprises a head portion having a bowl section and rim. The head portion may be affixed to a handle portion extending from the head portion. A heating means including a heating unit and heating element supplies electricity to rim portion fashioned with the heating element. Power is supplied to the heating means via a power means found in the device. A retainer positioned between the bowl section and heating element stabilizes and isolates the heating element from the bowl section. A method for manufacturing a heated scooping device includes affixing a handle portion to a head portion having a bowl section and rim, providing a heating means to heat a portion of the rim, and positioning a retainer between the bowl section and the heating element for electrically and thermally isolating the heating element from the bowl section.

Provided is a heating spoon, including a handle; a bowl connected to the handle; a heating element arranged in the bowl; and a power supply element arranged in the handle, the power supply element being electrically connected to the heating element and supplying power to the heating element. The invention has the following beneficial effects: the power supply element is electrically connected to the heating element and supplies power to the heating element; the heating element heats the bowl rather than the handle, so that food can be heated and the handle will not be too hot to hold.
