Enamel cup with saucer small

As the proud property of the younger members of the family, they prove themselves just as well as in the adult kitchen as an ideal alternative to plastic tableware: thanks to the enamel coating, the cup and saucer are durable, corrosion-resistant and, moreover, easy to clean.

The Story of the Soup-Kaspar( the “Suppen-Kaspar”) begins when a healthy, strong boy proclaims that he will no longer eat his soup; he wastes away and finally dies over the next five days. The story is part of “Der Struwwelpeter” (first published 1845), a once-famous German children’s book by Heinrich Hoffmann. Hofmann demonstrates in ten illustrated and rhymed stories the disastrous consequences of misbehaviour in a wildly exaggerated way. Far from the moral assumptions of this precursor to comic books, we assume, when children cook (or help out in the kitchen), they have more fun eating. Maybe genuine participation leads from the protest (“Yuck, spinach!“) to a curiosity for unknown dishes (“Wow, I like curry!“). 


The utensils of our selection for children helping in the kitchen fulfil all the criteria for quality which apply to cookware for adults: The pots, pans, and kitchen utensils are made from steel and thoroughly enamelled. Their enamel layer is very resilient and scratchproof. We have the cooking spoons turned from wood to dispense with plastic and the kitchen knives  – with rounded knife points  – made by Robert Herder in Solingen (just like many adult’s knives in our range).

Not suitable for children under 3 years. If used improperly, sharp-edged parts of the enamel coating may come off. Risk of injury to the throat.
