# Self-Contained Egg Cookers Gogol Mogol Lets You Instantly Create Hard Boiled Huevos By Michael Hines | Published 2012-05-30 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gogol-mogol References: [tuvie](http://www.tuvie.com/future-technology-gogol-mogol-egg-packaging-by-kian/) & [kian.ru](http://www.kian.ru/) Gogol Mogol is a creative [egg container](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bird-bros-gloriously-golden)/cooker designed to turn normal eggs into hard boiled eggs in just a few minutes. Gogol Mogol was created by KIAN, a Russian branding and design firm. The futuristic packaging works using layers of 'smart materials' to turn a normal egg into a hard boiled egg. The first layer of the Gogol Mogol egg is its cardboard covering. The second layer is home to the smart materials. Between the smart materials and the catalyst sits a thin membrane with a tag. When the tag is pulled, the smart materials and the membrane combine, heating up the egg. After a few minutes, the egg is fully cooked and ready to eat. KIAN's Gogol Mogol is still a concept, but hopefully the day comes soon when hard boiled eggs can be made simply by pulling a tag. The whole boiling eggs in a pot thing is so 20th century. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.6/10 - Popularity: 64% | Activity: 65% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Smart Packaging:** The use of 'smart materials' in packaging presents an opportunity for innovative and convenient cooking solutions like Gogol Mogol. - **Instant Cooking:** The concept of instantly cooking food products like eggs through new technologies can disrupt traditional cooking methods. - **Minimalist Design:** The minimalist and compact design of self-contained egg cookers like Gogol Mogol allows for easy and efficient cooking experiences. ### Where This Applies - **Food Packaging:** Food packaging industry can explore the use of smart materials to enhance convenience and freshness of food products. - **Kitchen Appliances:** The kitchen appliance industry can develop innovative cooking appliances that offer instant cooking solutions and require minimal effort. - **Home Cookware:** Home cookware manufacturers can create minimalistic and space-saving designs in their products to cater to the modern consumer's needs. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Scrambled Egg Cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instant-scrambled-eggs.md) - [Microwavable Vegan Eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/no-egg-egg.md) - [Ready-to-Eat Egg Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-gym-kitchen-hard-boiled-eggs.md) - [Heat-and-Eat Canned Omelettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canned-omelette.md) - [Egg-Based Snack Appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/muffin-maker.md) - [Plant-Based Hard-Boiled Eggs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-based-hard-boiled-egg.md) - [Versatile Frozen Omelettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frozen-omelettes.md) - [Value-Added Frozen Omelettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-happy-egg-co.md) - [Convenient Scrambled Egg Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/just-crack-an-egg-1.md)
