bambu^® Introduces Innovative ‘Spoontula’ series

January 2007, New York – bambu® the renewable ideas company, introduces the first-of-a-kind patented design ‘Spoontula.’ These unique natural utensils combine the style and function of a cooking spoon with a spatula. Stir, taste, spoon and blend with these uniquely designed kitchen tools made from organically grown bamboo, nature’s remarkably renewable material.

Featured on the cover the new 2007 bambu catalog, these uniquely designed, eye-catching tools are ready to perform double duty in the kitchen. The ‘Spoontulas’ were designed by notable Paris designer, Godefroy de Virieu a member of the bambu Design Collective, a collaboration of designers providing creative input and product ideas to the company.

The new ‘Spoontula’ series comes packaged in a set of three with a suggested retail price of $14.99. Like all bambu Natural Utensils, the ‘Spoontulas’ are made from organically grown bamboo. “We were intrigued with the concept, but when we put them to test in the kitchen, we immediately fell in love with them. They are extraordinary looking, almost sculptural,’ remarked bambu co-founder, Jeff Delkin.
