1. A scraper sponge for cleaning and scraping away unwanted substances from an object or surface, comprising:
a sponge body having a first layer with a first surface, a seamless second layer, a third layer with a second surface opposite the first surface, and a continuous side surface around a perimeter of the sponge body; and
a scraper attachment having a back surface and a front surface;
wherein the back surface of the scraper attachment includes a cylinder shaped part having a protruding lip at an apex thereof and having a diameter smaller than a diameter of the back surface of the scraper attachment inserted through the third layer, the second layer, and the first layer such that the back surface of the scraper attachment rests firmly against the first layer where it borders the second layer;
wherein the scraper attachment is fixedly secured to the first layer by way of a scraper cap connected to the protruding lip of the cylinder shaped part by adhesive means selected from the group consisting of an adhesive, heat fusion, and combinations thereof at the apex thereof;
wherein a first circular aperture extends through approximately the middle of the first layer and a second circular aperture extends through approximately the middle of the second layer, the third layer and the second surface of the sponge body, the second circular aperture having a diameter larger than a diameter of the first circular aperture;
wherein the front surface of the scraper attachment is covered with pyramid shaped edges extending outwardly in a direction of the second surface of the sponge body; and
wherein the scraper attachment is made level with the second surface of the sponge body when forces are applied to the top of the scraper cap and the back surface of the scraper attachment to manipulate the scraper attachment on a hard surface.
