Buying designer cookware with a twist
Good cookware needs to be functional, but it can also bring a smile to your face. The Pogo-designshop cookware collection is all about that second part. Israeli designer Peleg Design and the colorful brand Ototo create kitchen tools with character: a peeler that turns your carrot into a red beet curl, a spatula with a handle in the shape of a chef, a serving spoon like a roaring jungle leopard. All fully functional, dishwasher safe, and made from food-safe materials, but also something to laugh about when you pull it out of the drawer.
Spoons, spatulas, and servers with character
The Nessie soup ladles from Ototo (in green or turquoise) and Souper Tail from Peleg Design turn the bottom of your pot into a lake or sea. The Pan Man spatula stands upright in your pan like a chef at work, and the jungle serving spoon turns serving into a safari at the table. For those who like sets, there's the Pasta Grande set from Monkey Business with four pasta-shaped kitchen tools. Each one is a great entry into the world of designer cookware, and almost all are under twenty euros.
Garlic presses, colanders, and egg cups as gifts
Looking for a fun birthday gift or housewarming present for someone who loves to cook? Ototo's Gracula garlic press crushes garlic by moving its teeth, the Spaghetti Monster colander (in purple or pink) drains pasta water, and the Egguins egg holder neatly arranges your boiled eggs like penguins on your counter. Each one is a concrete gift that stands out among standard kitchen knife sets and tea towels. Order your designer cookware online at Pogo-designshop.
What cookware makes a nice gift for someone who loves to cook?
Playful designer cookware like the Gracula garlic press, the Spaghetti Monster colander, or the Sumo Eggs egg cups stand out among classic kitchen gifts because they are both functional and have character. Keep the gift amount between fifteen and thirty euros for a birthday or housewarming, and you'll almost always hit the mark.
