Abstract
A heated scooping device provides efficient handling of dense comestibles. The device comprises a head portion having a bowl section and rim. The head portion may be affixed to a handle portion extending from the head portion. A heating means including a heating unit and heating element supplies electricity to rim portion fashioned with the heating element. Power is supplied to the heating means via a power means found in the device. A retainer positioned between the bowl section and heating element stabilizes and isolates the heating element from the bowl section. A method for manufacturing a heated scooping device includes affixing a handle portion to a head portion having a bowl section and rim, providing a heating means to heat a portion of the rim, and positioning a retainer between the bowl section and the heating element for electrically and thermally isolating the heating element from the bowl section.
