    Are you talking about something to place your spoon on while cooking? Not sure what your need is, could you be a little more clear with your question?

      Yes, a spoon rest made from a marble tile that is stenciled with chalk ink and baked for permanence.

    The marble should be just fine, I use them in my drinks to keep them cold. It is the chalk ink and baking that has me stumped, so sorry, but thank you for clarifying your question.

    Just wondering, does it say anything on the underside of your spoon rest, like dishwasher safe, oven safe, microwave safe? We have seen some dishes marked with "not food safe" and if we use them around food, always put a barrier between the dish and the food, assuming they are correct and the product contains something that is hazardous (lead).

    If you are in doubt about using your spoon rest, place a barrier that is safe such as a paper towel, coffee filter, or aluminum foil depending on what you are cooking.

    Best to you , maybe someone else has more experience with this and can help you.
