Dr. Oetker Classic Pastry Brush With Non-stick Surface Protection

A pastry brush, also known as a basting brush, is a cooking utensil used to spread butter, oil or glaze on food.

Traditional pastry brushes are made with natural bristles or a plastic or nylon fiber similar to a paint brush, while modern kitchen brushes may have silicone bristles.

In baking breads and pastries, a pastry brush is used to spread a glaze or egg wash on the crust or surface of the food.
