What is silicone?
Silicone is a versatile and food-safe material extensively utilized in the production of kitchen tools and utensils. It is primarily composed of bonded silicon and oxygen, resulting in a rubber-like texture. Silicone utensils are renowned for their exceptional heat resistance, durability, and flexibility. At Le Petit Pélican, we prioritize the use of 100% food-safe silicone in our products. Our utensils undergo rigorous testing to meet and exceed safety standards set by the CPSIA and CSPA. This commitment ensures that our customers can confidently rely on our utensils, knowing that they are free from harmful substances and comply with stringent safety regulations.
