Handcrafted Spotted Gum Honey Dipper | Wooden Honey Drizzler

Complete your morning breakfast ritual with this handcrafted wooden honey dipper. Designed as the perfect companion piece to my Scottish porridge spurtle, this honey wand features deep, precision-cut grooves tailored to cleanly capture and hold just the right amount of honey or golden syrup for your oats, tea, or grazing board.

I turn each of these dippers by hand on the lathe in my Moruya workshop using beautiful, salvaged Australian spotted gum. Spotted gum is a premium, dense hardwood known for its striking grain patterns and incredible durability. Measuring 190mm in length with a 45mm diameter head, it provides a comfortable grip while keeping your hands clear of sticky jars. Once the shaping is complete, I sand each piece to a flawlessly smooth finish and seal it with natural, food-safe tung oil to protect the timber and bring out the rich, natural colors of the wood.

Whether you are upgrading your own morning porridge setup or looking for a unique, functional addition to your kitchen, this piece brings a touch of handcrafted warmth to your daily routine.
