Revol inspires creative culinary serving suggestions and with the latest Froisses collection, the purposefully crumpled cup design adds a party element to the meal.

[Bent and crumpled cutlery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/evolving-spoon) brings to mind birthday parties and college keggers where the destroyed plastic dishes serve as evidence for how much fun everybody had. With [fun patterns and colors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-hefty-party-cups) such as gingham print and confetti, as well as a metallic gold and silver series, this collection can be used for a range of different types of get-togethers and celebrations.

The small sizes are excellent for serving finger foods and deserts as well as beverages, while the larger crumpled cup design sizes can be used as ice buckets for champagne.
