Quirky Fungi Kitchenwares

Ototo's Magic Mushroom Funnel is a Fun and Functional Household Item

— November 12, 2021 — Art & Design
Designed by OTOTO, in collaboration with Carla Rataus, the Magic Mushroom funnel is a fun and functional household kitchen item creating wonder in everyday objects.

The Magic Mushroom's cap flips over and becomes a funnel. Its long stem can assist and be placed in bottles and jars alike for easy pouring.

It is made with silicone, is BPA-free, 100% food safe, and is easy to clean as it is dishwasher safe.

"OTOTO products are functional household items with a witty and unexpected twist." OTOTO is also the brand behind the 'Nessie' ladles, 'Gracula' the garlic crusher, and 'Spaghetti Monster' calendar and pasta servers.

Consumers can liven up their kitchen with the Magic Mushroom Funnel. The device is available to purchase on the OTOTO website and ships to Canada and the US.
