Wish list: The Norman Copenhagen whisk

The German design trio Ding3000 has created a whisk for Normann Copenhagen that is sculpturesque, space-saving and functional all at the same time.

Beaters can be folded together, saving space in the kitchen drawer or on the wall. It is inspired by a pack of straws and is gathered in the middle using a ring that functions as both an opening and closing mechanism and a hanging fixture. Beater comes in white, grey, light blue, nude, lavender, pink, mint and dark blue — €15 from normann-copenhagen.com.

What is food without the wine? Stack the plonk in style with the Flow wine rack, €45 from Black and Blum.

Cook up a storm with the Induction hob — its induction zones generate a magnetic field; for short, low-energy boil-up and fast, exact regulation of heat. €746 from Ikea.
