Its minus 20 degrees in Oslo today and nothing is more tempting than just staying at home, enjoying a hot cup of chocolate. Especially when it looks as delicate as this hotchocspoon from the Dutch Chocolate company. The hotchocspoons comes in 46 different and quite creative flavors… from strawberry and pink pepper to seaweed, 85% cocoa , or what about having one WITH a whisky or amaretto shot? More pics after the jump…

Once again I’ve found a nice example of how you can combine your passion for typography and design with food and bakeries. Woodward Design have put together a typographical feast of desserts just in time for the holidays. Eight sweet recipes, where the of the food is accessorized with W’s, for the love of typography and Woodward Design. The cookbook includes font uses and recipe sources and comes in a limited edition of 500 ex…or you can enjoy the online version. Perfect Christmas gift for the dessert and/or typography lover.
Ok, snails might not be the most delicate food if you think of it as slimy, small animals, but when they are served in the proper way they become the most delicate dish. So for me it seems a little strange that Manuel Jouvin chose to make this packaging for cooked snail out of snail excrements, a material so far away from delicate and exclusive as you might get. In fact, in order to give it the right colour, snails are encouraged to eat coloured paper witch again will give a coloured poop! No doubt it looks good, and I am positively surprised of how the material has transformed into a good-looking packaging.
Following up on last weeks post about the amazing collaboration between The Deli Garage and the design team of Korefe, here are three of their other projects… all of them with an amazing and fun graphic look! This Hip flask for instance gives a new meaning to its name, as it is modern and youthful, and maybe even the perfect Christmas present?

The Deli Garage is a German food cooperative that helps small local manufacturers market their products, turning quality delicacies into special design products. With a big help from the design team of Korefe they have made some “boring” products into something interesting and new, which will definitely stand out in the supermarket.Here you see the cool packaging of honey from Austria.
