The head had a durable feel and created consistently smooth scoops of ice cream. Because of these factors, we gave this ice cream scoop a five-star rating in the design category.

Scooping depends in part on the type of scoop used. If you're using a round scoop, it should be used at an angle, scooping in an s-shape in the tub of ice cream, then following around the outside of the tub to even off the top of the tub for the next scoop. Spade-style scoops are generally pushed into and across the top of the ice cream. Dipping the scoop into hot water can help get the scoop through hard ice cream, but it can also leave a bit of water behind in the ice cream tub where it will turn into ice. It may be better to leave the ice cream out of the freezer for a few minutes to let it soften enough to be easy to scoop.The Zeroll 1020 Original has long been a favorite among those in the know because it contains a heat-conductive liquid inside the scoop that aids in cutting through your ice cream or sorbet. However, after testing it extensively, we also found that it is an excellent choice for lefties due to its symmetrical design. We tested this scoop with our left and right hands, and both produced the same type of scoop. We also liked that this ice cream scoop’s handle was substantially wide and offered a firm grip. Our tests showed that its design made it able to better accommodate a range of hand sizes, too.

For Kelly Williamson, co-founder of True Scoops ice cream, the best way to scoop ice cream is to let the ice cream soften on the counter until it gives slightly with the touch of a finger. “Dip your ice cream scoop in at a slight angle and drag it towards you until a ball of ice cream has formed,” she says. “If you’re scooping from a pint, dip into it at the same slight angle but ‘go around the world’ which basically means to go around the outside of the pint scooping up all that ice cream.”The typical ice cream scoop is designed to hold about 4 ounces of ice cream, which is about half a cup. However, the Bechtels point out that not all ice creams are created equally, which can affect how much a scoop of ice cream weighs.

Overall, the Joseph Joseph Dimple Non-Drip Ice Cream Scoop earned the spot as the best ice cream scoop. During testing, it wowed us with its innovative and thoughtful design, and proved to be easy to use and clean. Our Test Kitchen team has tried dozens of scoops over the years. These expert cooks and bakers use scoops to top desserts with ice cream and scoop up the frozen treats they whip up in the kitchen. Pint after pint, a few brands of ice cream scoops really impressed our team. Best Overall: Zeroll Ice Cream Scoop We also appreciated ice cream scoops that had an easy-to-grip handle. The best ice cream scoops from our testing often had a material, such as silicone or rubber, on the handle that allowed us to better grip the scoop. Midnight Scoop: The pricey Midnight Scoop looks like a piece of modern sculpture. To use it, you push with the palm of your hand, rather than pulling, like with a traditional scoop. There’s a bit of a learning curve to use it correctly; for us, it pushed the ice cream like a bulldozer, never really scooping it. This ergonomic model also needs a wide-open area to work in, so, if you buy ice cream in narrow pint or quart containers, this probably isn’t the right tool for you. Nothing beats a Zeroll scoop," says Bauer. "The handle is filled with a liquid that transfers heat from your hand to the aluminum scoop, which melts just a little bit of ice cream as you run it over the surface and cleanly releases the ice cream from the metal."The Spring Chef Ice Cream Scoop has an ergonomic, comfortable rubber handle that comes in twelve different colors (we tested the purple one). The handle also boasts a notch at the bottom for lifting off frozen lids, similar to a bottle opener. No more cold fingers! The Gorilla Grip Original Ice Cream Scooper earned the spot as the best large ice cream scoop. During our testing, we loved scooping ice cream with this tool because of its wide head and ergonomic handle. Easy to squeeze: bixel ice cream scoop with trigger saves effort and time. a gentle push on the trigger releases the ice cream out of the scooper easily and in perfect shape without worrying about breaking or bending

Ice Cream Scoop Buyer’s Guide
