PASTRY BRUSH Iris Hantverk

Horsehair bristles are superior for delicate tasks like egg washing or glazing pastries because they hold liquid more effectively and provide a smoother, more even application without streaking. While silicone is easier to sanitize, horsehair offers the precision and control required for professional-style baking.

To preserve the wood, avoid soaking the brush in water or putting it in the dishwasher. Simply hand wash the bristles with mild soap, rinse thoroughly, and wipe the handle dry before hanging it to air dry.

Yes, the natural horsehair is versatile enough to handle both. Just ensure the brush is completely clean and dry before using it to dust flour, as any residual moisture will cause the flour to clump.

As with any natural fiber brush, you may experience minor shedding when the item is brand new. This is normal and will subside quickly with regular use.

The oiled birch handle is designed with a rounded, ergonomic shape that provides a natural grip. Its lightweight construction makes it comfortable to hold, even when you are glazing large batches of pastries.
