Why we want to buy a new stove straight away, what we drink from – and what we drink: find out in our latest food trends.
We Love
Powder to go
The magic word collagen is currently on everyone’s lips. And rightly so, because as time goes on, the body’s own collagen production decreases. This means that not only do wrinkles become visible, but joint problems and bone loss also occur more frequently. Formetta powder stimulates the production of collagen, elastin and hyaluronic acid – the three little helpers for firm connective tissue. Getting enough collagen is now child’s play: thanks to various flavors such as vanilla or grape and the option of mixing the powder with water, yogurt or other cold drinks as desired.

Cheers
You don’t have to drink champagne from glasses. Rules are there to be broken anyway. The champagne goblet from the Fürstenberg porcelain manufactory doesn’t necessarily have to be used as such. With its gaudy, pop art-inspired design and 24-carat gold interior, it is also the ideal decorative object in the kitchen or living room. And if you don’t really care about the rules, you can sip tea from it.

Collaboration
Playful
For glass manufacturer Ichendorf Milano, creating pretty drinking glasses and carafes is not enough: There has to be life and creativity in the containers. In the latest collection with the jewelry label Aliita, cute ghosts, bunnies, robots or even a house look out at you as you empty the glass. Hardly anyone combines elegant design with childlike playfulness so harmoniously.
Nice to Have
Pastel
Unfortunately, we can’t all throw our stove out of the kitchen at will and swap it for a new, colorful model. Anyone who is currently renovating or considering a new kitchen should browse through La Cornue’s range as soon as possible. The “Albertine 90” model comes in sweet baby blue or pink, among other colors. Hobby cooks will be delighted with the innovative technology: a multifunction oven and either five gas burners or an induction plate guarantee fine dining at home. For aesthetes who prefer to order something to eat and always have a clean kitchen at home, the beautiful pastel colors and gold accents are reason enough to choose something from the traditional French brand.

Unfuck the World
Fair fabric
Textiles are with us everywhere – not only in our outfits, but also in the kitchen, where chaos breaks out without cloths, aprons and the like. We know that things are often unfair in the textile industry. This is where Social Fabric comes into play. The independent atelier in Zurich focuses on educational and employment opportunities for people with a refugee background. The women-led organization promotes the integration of employees, sewing as a craft, the careful use of resources and sustainable and fair production. The result is the most amazing textile creations. Aprons, tablecloths, napkins and bread bags prove that high-quality textiles not only enhance our wardrobe, but also the kitchen.
