An offset spatula is an icing spatula with a blade that is lightly offset. These spatulas are usually shorter than a regular flat icing spatula and are especially convenient for precise edging of frosted desserts.

The most convenient offset size is 4-¾ or something similar. I would recommend that each household have one.

You should purchase commercial versions since they last significantly longer than those made just for household use.
