Thermoflask's durable, food- grade stainless steel construction won't absorb flavors, prevents rusting and is built to last under the most active, challenging or adventurous occasions. Ideal for breaking free from the reliance of wasteful and costly dispos- able water bottles, Thermoflask is a BPA-free, reusable solution backed with a limited lifetime warranty. Topping its sleek profile is a locking twist cap that completely locks into place for a leak proof seal. The drinking spout is carefully designed to ensure ideal beverage flow, and the flask's wide mouth provides ample room to fill with ice. Moreover, the uniquely designed lid, which has a tactile band for easy gripping, is universally sized to fit on any Thermoflask size. Thermoflask also comes equipped with a convenient, solid loop handle for easy carrying and hanging. Visit Takeya at booth #S3643.

By not having an open flame creating pollution, reducing the need for cleaning used wax and the ability to change scents in sec- onds, using a pod is easy and convenient. Feedback from leading fragrance houses and competitors is that the market expects more evolution in wax melt sys- tems. Serene House has taken this indus- try challenge to heart and is innovating and improving its wax melt technology system. With the Serene House - Serene Pod system, it has addressed the most important issue of safety. Its patented Serene Pod solution goes beyond what is available in the market as the Original Serene Pod, which also has a spill-proof membrane, making the pod completely safe. In addition to safety, it has also used a recyclable aluminum cup for the wax pod and has developed a wax melt which produces longer-lasting scents and makes the overall system more eco-friendly. Entering into its second year with the Serene Pod system available, Serene House is introducing new modern designs Serene H o use (C o nt'd. fro m p. 4 ) called "Dome" and "Oval" with and with- out light in four colors to have opening price points below $24.99 for home fra- grance use. It is also expanding the Pod program with new wall plugs called "Archi & Hive," using the large Pod with the same features and benefits as the tabletop units, as well as a car diffuser set called "Jazz" using the smaller pod. The fragrance program has expand- ed to 18 scents and the company is working on the customization of season- al scents and individual merchandising programs. The entire system is reminis- cent of how the functionality of the K- cup has revolutionized the coffee brew- ing business. Serene House products are designed under the artistic direction of Carsten Jörgensen. Jörgensen has a long career as a chief designer for such brands as Bodum and has worked with many well- known and prestigious companies and retailers worldwide. Visit Serene House at booth #N-8313.

Belgium is world famous for its chocolate, thanks to the quality of its ingredients, its high cocoa content, its careful roasting and the expertise of its artisans. Belgians have also invented delicious "pralines," those chocolate can- dies that you must be able to eat in one single bite. This delicacy was created in 1912 by Jean Neuhaus, a chocolatier from Brussels. Since then, Belgian chocolatiers have never ceased to devel- op that intense yet ephemeral taste con- centrate that melts in the mouth. It is pre- cisely this unique and acclaimed Belgian know-how that Sébastien Frédérich and Gautier Rouyer, Croquade's Chief Executive Officers, want to share with the world. After one year of research, the com- pany has succeeded in creating a temper- ing machine for domestic use inspired by the professional tempering machines. "We had one goal: make the art of Belgian chocolate accessible to every- one," Gautier Rouyer explains. This tem- pering machine provides the ideal tem- perature in order to work with the choco- late paste and create bright, beautiful, crisp and good chocolates. In order to have the full chocolate experience, the machine will come with professional cookware accessories, such as polycar- bonate praline pans, 1 3/8 inch pastry C ro quade (C o nt'd. fro m p. 1 ) spatulas, pastry bags and a cooking ther- mometer, as well as a cookbook written in partnership with the Belgian chocolati- er Laurent Gerbaud. Gerbaud is a Brussels-based chocolatier who regularly teaches workshops dedicated to chocolate. "The art of chocolate is simple and easy to learn. You only need to have the right tools and advice. During my workshops, people are impressed by what they can do and they want to share it as quickly as possible with their family and friends," Gerbaud says. As the whole "chocolatière" proj- ect interested him very much, he decided to try Croquade's LaChocolatière tempering machine and accessories. "It is amazing. I was able to recreate my recipes, from the easiest one to the most sophisticated one, in the simplest way." In the future, Croquade wants to develop the field of chocolate decora- tions with new types of molds, acces- sories, kits dedicated to "chocolate moments" such as Christmas or Valentine's Day, transfer sheets, edible dyes and confetti. The Belgian firm wish- es to provide everything chocolate lovers could dream of in order to express their limitless creativity. During the International Housewares Show, Laurent Gerbaud will be the spe- cial guest of Croquade at booth #L13312. He will share his knowledge and use the LaChocolatière tempering machine while demonstrating the art of making pralines. Visit Croquade at booth #L13312.
