Citrus Slice Squeezers

The Lime Pocket Allows You to Spritz Juice Without Getting Sticky Fingers

— December 13, 2013 — Art & Design
A cocktail party is generally a classy affair, and you'll want to keep clean hands for a number of reasons. The Lime Pocket is a clever little culinary implement that prevents those frustratingly sticky fingers that you get when you go to spritz your drink.

Designed by Nendo, the product has been made from thin and highly flexible silicone material, molded loosely to the shape of a single slice of a citrus fruit. A full set of Lime Pockets can be combined to create a complete sphere. The shape is perfect for inserting a lime or a small lemon or orange wedge inside, enabling you to hold it without having to touch the succulent edible. With the Lime Pocket on, you can squeeze a few sour drops into your drink and then slot it over the rim of the glass.
Trend Themes
1. Silicone Culinary Implements - There is opportunity for the creation of innovative culinary tools made of silicone material.
2. Hand-free Juicing - Disruptive innovation can come from creating products that allow for hands-free juicing of citrus fruits.
3. Cocktail Decor - There is room for innovation in the area of cocktail garnishes and decor, such as with the Lime Pocket product.
Industry Implications
1. Culinary Tools and Equipment - Companies in the culinary tools and equipment industry can create more innovative products by exploring uses of silicone material and hand-free juicing.
2. Beverage and Cocktail - The Lime Pocket and similar products can create new opportunities in the cocktail garnish and decor industry.
3. Food Service Equipment - Manufacturers of food service equipment can explore innovative ways of integrating hands-free juicing technology into their products.
