Fondu
Bôbo, 2018
A fondue designed without technology but functioning with precision and millimeter control. In collaboration with master chocolatiers and the leading natural candle factory, we have successfully developed the heat source, which allows for precise control of intensity and duration. This ensures that the chocolate is always at the optimal temperature and consistency. Additionally, the combination of vents and the exterior shape regulates airflow and enables precise temperature control, allowing for ON/OFF operation and temperature adjustment.
Designed to engage all five senses, this fondue aims to create an experience that goes beyond the enjoyment of chocolate, appealing to taste (1) and smell (2). The body is made of borosilicate glass, allowing you to see (3) the chocolate pearls melting while being the most hygienic, durable, and heat-resistant material. It's ideal for use and reuse. The base is constructed from cork to insulate the temperature and provide a safe touch (4) for the container. What's most surprising is that the natural wax candles have wooden wicks that produce a characteristic sound (5) when burning, reminiscent of the crackling of burning wood.
Materials: Borosilicate glass, agglomerated cork, and beeswax.
