A British Supermarket (undisclosed at the moment but I suspect Jamie Oliver may well be advertising them soon) has announced the introduction of square Water Melons later this year. The Brazilian growers place the fledgling fruit into clear boxes which restrict and shape the final ripe fruit. According to the (slightly biased) spokesman for the […]

I seem to remember these guys appearing on the Dragons Den on BBC2 a couple of months ago. I though the idea was cool then but the ‘Dragons’ were not interested. It’s good to see Orikaso up and running and in full production. They specialise in a range of flat pack cups, plates and bowls […]

This is the stuff I like, a kitchen timer that gradually creeps its way along the counter in it’s snail-like design. No idea on price or stockists, but hey it’s cool!
Found at Ikonee

SMEG have released these 50’s inspired designed in their fridge range. The FAB range feature the sleek lines associated with the 50’s but with today’s expected technology (Energy rating A etc).

Another instant classic from Messer Paul Smith. A damn funky set of six plates featuring none other than David Bowie. Available from the Paul Smith website for a mere £350 for the set.

Menu have this little lovely available. A wrap-around thermometer for your wine bottle so your favourite tipple is always at optimal temperature for consumption.

I really like the look of this carving set from the folks at Eva Solo. Manufactured in asian blade steel it seemlessly flows from handle to blade and prongs. Another classic item for the kitchen.

Designed and manufactured by Kuppersbuschusa this is something really different in the kitchen worktop market. The ceramic glass electric hob sits flush to the worktop and due to the honeycomb design, the arrangements of the individual hobs is endless. Brace yourself for the price though, the control unit itself costs $1750 and the hobs are […]

This may not be the best looking gadget ever but hell, if it makes the pizza to mouth time quicker and less messy then I’m all for it.
