For those looking for neat and [quirky kitchen appliances](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mario-mug), look no further than the ‘Shark! Heat-Sensitive Mug.’ Depending on the temperature of the mug, certain artwork will appear.

The mug operates via [heat-sensitive sensors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allcom-smart-tumbler) that allow certain images to appear/disappear. When cool, the mug simply displays a series of swimmers in the ocean, relaxing and enjoying their day. When a hot beverage is added to the cup, a swarm of sharks appear within the artwork itself. The mug is not only fun and quirky, but will be a definite conversation starter when guests come over for tea.

These mugs are fully equipped for [coffees, teas and other hot beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soundsip). Spice up you morning with some extra flair and grab one of these ‘Shark! Heat-Sensitive Mugs’ online now.
