CANOBLE MAISON Unveils the Glass Slipper
In a delightful twist of culinary artistry, CANOBLE MAISON introduces its first product, the 'Glass Slipper'. Crafted from agar, this impressive edible artwork captures the delicate beauty and shimmering transparency reminiscent of Cinderella's iconic footwear. The product will be available for pre-order on their e-commerce site starting today, with an official launch at their Tokyo factory set for September 1.
A Dream Waltz into Reality
The muse behind this creation springs from the childhood memories of the enchanting fairy tale 'Cinderella'. CANOBLE MAISON aims to transform the fantasies of youth into edible art that can be both seen and savored. By fusing the romanticism of fairy tales with high jewelry's aesthetic beauty, this new brand envisions a joyful experience that delights both sight and palate.
The concept revolves around 'food cosmetics', aimed at enhancing the food experience into a visual treat as well. By researching the traditional properties of agar, the team at CANOBLE MAISON has successfully created a unique version of 'crystal agar', designed with intricate structural elements to form an exquisite, transparent piece that evokes the charming narrative of Cinderella.
The Artistry of the Glass Slipper
The 'Glass Slipper' intricately replicates the complex form of the iconic footwear using agar, a material known for its high moisture content. Crafting a stable, self-supporting structure from a fluid state involves meticulous calculations within confectionery technology. CANOBLE MAISON leverages its accumulated expertise in structural design to ensure an ideal balance between material properties and strength, while also optimizing transparency and light refractive index.
The heel and side profiles of the slipper are accurately molded, showcasing the craftsmanship involved. Beyond its stunning aesthetic, the 'Glass Slipper' also tantalizes the taste buds with its carefully crafted flavor profile:
- - Aroma: A delicate blend of floral notes and fresh fruit flavors.
- - Taste: A refreshing acidic base ensuring a light aftertaste that does not compromise agar's natural transparency.
The Spirit of Food Artistry
In the tradition of fashion houses, where creativity and craftsmanship coalesce to tailor exquisite garments, CANOBLE MAISON embodies a similar ethos in creating edible art pieces. Drawing from its origins in 'food cosmetics' and the spirit of 'NOT WAGASHI', CANOBLE MAISON intersects the realms of fashion and haute cuisine, paving the way for a new category of culinary presentation where aesthetic enjoyment meets active consumption.
With the 'Glass Slipper', CANOBLE MAISON explores the potential of three-dimensional shaping with agar. Their long-standing expertise shines through in the creation of this transparent form. By layering the aromas of flowers and fruits alongside a refreshing tartness, they elevate the concept of jewelry into the food realm, expanding the horizons of gastronomic expression.
