Sweet Bentos

I’ve always been fascinated with bento boxes. There are a lot of cool websites out there, here is one I’ve discovered recently : Adventure in Bentomaking, by Pikko.

LeWhif

Here is the new design for LeWhif, the chocolate inhaler. Harvard professor David Edwards and le Laboratoire invented LeWhif, which works like an inhaler filled with small chocolate particles. LeWhif was released last year but a new biodegradable version is out. It also now uses biological chocolate. It has been designed by SublimDesign agency, in Paris. At least the old version was, not sure about this one.

La Pâtisserie Des Rêves

I’ve never been there yet but it is only a matter of time. La Pâtisserie des Rêves, by Philippe Conticini. The design of the shop was orchestred by Thierry Teyssier with the agency Lever De Rideau. The pastries are arranged under big glass covers, like a sort of laboratory.
