Egg dishes

This project is part of Food Design and Food Waste. The plates are made from broken eggs, making use of this material that is going to waste.

Thus finding a new 100% compostable and biodegradable biomaterial.

First, the egg yolks are cooked to remove any impurities and then ground into flour. This egg yolk flour is then mixed with calcium alginate and white vinegar.

Molds of different shapes and sizes have been used to create the complete tableware collection, which includes everything from flat plates to bowls and glasses.

Different foods have been used for colouring in order to take advantage of their natural pigment. Fruits and vegetables have been boiled, such as: red cabbage to obtain the blue colour, spinach for the green colour, beetroot for the red colour and turmeric for the yellow colour.
