The arrangement includes a scraping device having a blade and a body, which body includes an ergonomically-shaped handgrip portion for a user to hold the scraping device. The user uses the blade to remove or scrape residue from the cooking surface, while minimizing damage to the cooking surface. The blade is held in a blade holder, which blade holder includes a moveable protection cover to protect the user from accidental contact with the blade. The cover can be retracted during use to expose the blade for removing residue. The blade holder and the handgrip portion are made of a duroplastic synthetic-plastic material having a low thermal conductivity.
