In 2016, for the first time (!) The ADI Compasso d'Oro architectural award, which is given for the best work in the field of design, was presented to the Shockino team, who came up with the design for the chocolate. The winning Mix Experience collection includes chocolate sets of three figures, each of which represents an architectural element. All three are easily assembled together into one chocolate piece. The taste of the assembled composition can be completely different, since the original composition and color of the "architectural forms" differs in 18 aroma planes!
The Shockino team skillfully combines charmItalian design and the art of handmade chocolate. The collection consists of a base, an outer ring and a kind of cotter pin. The weight of a fully assembled product is 14 grams. Different types of boxes with prepared sets are available: "216 mix" with 36 elements for making 12 chocolates, "27 mix" with 9 elements for creating 3 chocolates and a small "1 mix" for choosing the most popular flavor. Each box has an information card inside with the history of the "birth" of a particular aroma and taste. The edible design innovation includes praline, pistachios, pine nuts and walnuts, hazelnuts and licorice. The palette of natural aromatic additives includes Sicilian oranges, myrtle from Sardinia, Madagascar cinnamon and coffee from Guatemala.
The venue for the sweet celebrationShockino became the salon Minotti cucine milano. The evening was held with the participation of Alberto Miinotti (Minotticucine), Piergiorgio Carozza, Gabriele Cossu (designer Officina Quack) and Patrizia di Costanzo (Dipartimento Distribuzione e Servizi ADI). The editorial staff of roomble.com also tasted the unusual chocolate and admired the ingenious design idea.
