# Detachable Yogurt Spoons 'The Clever House' Created Spoons for On-the-Go Snacks By Mishal Omar | Published 2016-12-14 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-clever-house References: [thedieline](http://www.thedieline.com/blog/2016/12/6/v-spoon-utensil) & [domum.ru](http://domum.ru/) Creative agency The Clever House designed the packaging for 'Emil Dairy's' yogurts and the end result is both functional and convenient. The agency created what it calls the 'V-Spoon' in designing the packaging for these yogurts. The V-Spoon is a piece of plastic that lies flat upon opening, and then can be transformed into a utensil that can be used to eat the snack. This enhanced functionality of what would otherwise be a [plain yogurt snack](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chobani-flip-greek-yogurt) ensures that consumers have a reason to purchase this brand over another. The V-Spoon is made from [bioplastic which is biodegradable](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfpacking-cheese), so as not to harm the environment. In designing this product, The Clever House was able to adequately change the direction for how [yogurts tend to be packaged](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cocoyo-packaging) and offer a highly functional end result. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 79% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Biodegradable Packaging:** Biodegradable packaging solutions are disrupting the food industry and offering consumers a more sustainable option. - **Enhanced Functionality:** Designing products with enhanced functionality is a trend in consumer goods, providing a unique selling point. - **Alternative Utensils:** The use of alternative utensils, such as the V-Spoon, is a growing trend in the food industry, offering convenience on-the-go. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food Packaging:** The food packaging industry has the opportunity to adopt biodegradable materials and create innovative packaging solutions. - **Consumer Goods:** The consumer goods industry can capitalize on the trend of enhanced functionality by developing products that provide unique and practical features. - **Food Service:** The food service industry can explore the use of alternative utensils to enhance convenience and improve customer experience. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Spoon-Equipped Formula Lids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chadwicks.md) - [Edible Ice Cream Spoons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ministop-edible-spoon.md) - [Edible Ice Cream Spoons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ice-cream-spoons.md) - [Convenient Honey-Holding Utensils](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/al-malaky-royal.md) - [Combinational On-the-Go Food Packaging](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beltur-go.md) - [Domed Lid Yogurt Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/go-bowl.md) - [On-The-Go Yogurt Ranges](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onthego-yogurt.md) - [Ergonomic Instant Noodle Forks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nendo-x-nissin-the-fork.md) - [Multi-Functional Pasta Spoons](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/multifunctional-pasta-spoon.md)
