Scoop holders are a type of kitchen utensil used for scooping and holding food items such as ice cream, mashed potatoes, and other soft foods. The two most common types of scoop holders are corners and cones. Corners are scoop holders with four sides that form a square or rectangle shape, while cones are scoop holders with a curved shape that tapers to a point at the bottom. Both types of scoop holders are designed to make it easier to scoop and hold food items without spilling them.
