The art of melting and preparing chocolate is a ritual requiring the use of “tools” that are carefully designed to give maximum functionality.
When designing the chocolate “Theo” the utmost attention was paid to these “functional details”.
Stoneware has been used since it is a ceramic material that is slowly heated, very regularly and uniformly, and is able to retain heat for a long time.
The handle of the cups and chocolate pots have ergonomic shapes and become the place where to rest the whisk or the spoon.
Because it is so dense, chocolate is poured rather like gold from the crucible.
The “Theo” Chocolate set has been created with the three spouts making it easy and practical to pour.
A fruit strainer/filter transforms the pot into a functional herbal tea filter, kept warm by the heater, or into a jug for healthy, freshly squeezed orange juice.
The cup is characterised by a special handle, with the same original shape as the chocolate pot. This makes it easy to hold, safe from heat and at the same time can be used as a rest for the fruit strainer and for the spoon.
