Kitchenware News & Housewares Review Show Daily Tuesday, March 13, 2018 6 aerolatte Matcha Tea Frother – Drink the Matcha, Feel the Magic aerolatte ® – the incredibly frothy coffee company – has had a new product brew- ing and is excited to share with you the launch of the matcha tea frother, which has been designed to optimise the flavor, the texture and the color of your matcha drinks. Eighteen years ago, Alan and Gary, Founders of aerolatte, were in search of the best solution for making perfect frothy milk. Changing the home coffee experience forever, their passion soon grew into a global business following the creation of their aerolatte milk frother. After noticing on social media that a lot of customers were using their aerolat- te original milk frothers to whisk up matcha tea, Alan and Gary felt that whilst the original milk frothers were perfect for creating incredibly frothy coffees, a ded- icated design would achieve better results in optimising the flavor, color and health of matcha drinks, leading to the creation of the matcha tea frother. If you are new to matcha, the ever- growing health trend for 2018, matcha is a fine green powder of specially grown and processed green tea leaves packed with antioxidants. Traditionally, matcha is used in the Japanese tea ceremony (also called the Way of Tea, a Japanese cultural activity centered around the preparation and presentation of tea). The stainless steel whisking head featured in the classic aerolatte milk frothers may reduce the beneficial effects of the antioxidants and micronutrients present in matcha; however, the aero- latte matcha tea frother has a spe- cial whisking head, designed specifically to mimic the action of a chasen (the special bamboo tea whisk used in the Japanese tea ceremony), allowing you to get the most authentic result. The frother also has a new matcha specific motor which works at the perfect speed for mixing matcha powder with water. Through its unique and clever design, the aerolatte matcha tea frother is perfect for anyone, from the professional health or food blogger to the new matcha convert looking to try a healthier alterna- tive to tea. For a product demonstration, or to see the magic in the matcha frother your- self, head over to aero- latte's booth #S1559. The team would love to meet you at the show. Pop by the stand or get in touch to arrange an appoint- ment and they'll be sure to have a hot mug of coffee or matcha tea waiting for you. Looking for some inspiration?

Rather than grabbing expensive, not-so-healthy meals during the day, con- sumers are packing their breakfasts, snacks and lunches. Jar-to-Go containers solve many of the problems encountered by the meal prep crowd. The Lékué Jar-to-Go lets people pack their meals and snacks in unbreakable, sealable jars. Lékué created the Jar-to-Go so classic glass jar meals can go anywhere without fear of spills, leaks or breakage. These 14-ounce and the 20-ounce jars are made of BPA-free plastic and silicone and feature a snug fit- ting, screw top lid with a handle. Jar-to-Go takes the lunch packed in a jar trend to the next level, making it sim- ple and risk free – even for kids. Each of the jars includes a collapsible container tucked inside the lid. The container expands to hold granola for yogurt parfaits or dressing, dips or crunchy toppings for salads, soups or noodles. This flexible container inside the larger container solves the problem of mix- ing dry and wet foods. Dry ingredients stored in the small container don't get soggy, and dressings and dips are kept separate for a more enjoyable meal. The jars and lids are dishwasher safe and retail for $15 for the 14-ounce and $18 for the 20-ounce. "Lékué believes that feeling good is a consequence of a healthy and balanced diet," said Tara Steffen, Vice President of Marketing, Lékué USA. "However, eating healthy does not necessarily mean investing a lot of time. We want to create solutions for eating healthy and doing so in a reasonable, sustainable way. Jar-to-Go was a result of this think- ing." For more information, call 302.326.4805, visit www.lekueusa.com or stop by booth #S858. Gaia Group USA Dinnerware Introduces New Textures, Versatile Multi-Use Bowls Gaia Group USA is bringing a fresh new wave to its Gaia Tablescapes™ home dinnerware collections. New and updated lines will build on the group's established strengths, from organic shapes and colors to designs and finishes inspired by nature and patterns from around the world. "Our theme for 2018 is 'Flourish'," says Marie McGrath-Brown, General Manager and President of Gaia Group USA. "Our new Gaia Tablescapes are designed to create a feeling of comfort and celebrate the joys of abundance." Innovative glaze effects play a key role in this year's releases. For example, in its new Nila pattern from the popular Bella Terra collection, a cobalt blue glaze is paired with a brown hand-paint- ed rim, creating the illusion of metallic bronze. You might expect the matte finish on many patterns to feel dull or rough to the touch, but the actual texture will surprise you: the reactive glaze is silky smooth with a satin-like feel. Many of this year's collections also feature a trending new design: a multi- purpose coupe-shaped dinner bowl. This style is rapidly growing in popularity thanks to its versa- tility, making it great for everything from salads and soups to pasta dishes, desserts and more. Coupe bowls will be available as an additional option in some collections, and will replace traditional salad plates in others. In addition, Gaia has chosen to honor eight exceptional women from history throughout its 2018 collections. "Just as meals bring us together with family and friends, we hope the lives and achievements of these exceptional women will continue to inspire conversation, creativity, action and innovation," McGrath-Brown says. In keeping with its "Better Earth/Better World" philosophy, a portion of each Gaia Tablescapes product sale is donated to Grameen Foundation, a global nonprofit organization using the latest technolo- gy to help women in the world's poorest regions better their lives, feed and educate their children, and protect their families' health.
