NEW: triangle handle series "TMT beech"

Spatulas should be functional and handy, yes. But shouldn't they look classy, too? Especially when used for serving food at the table? We think, they should. And this is why we developed the new handle series "TMT beech".
TMT stands for "thermally modified timbre". This means that the organic beech wood was treated with heat only to reduce the swelling possibilities of the wood and to improve the durability and the hygiene considerably. We want to point out that the beech wood itself originates from sustainably managed German forests.
The sophisticated look and feel of the TMT beech spatulas does come with the function-polished surfaces of the working parts. And they do not even look great - they perform perfectly: Creams, coatings and glazes can be applied smoothly and quickly thanks to these surfaces. The slightly sharpened front edges and the flexibility in the front makes it easy to pick up sensitive foods.
Currently 9 spatula are offered in the triangle® TMT Beech handle series. And they are all 100 % made in Germany.

NEW: triangle Thai knife with marker tip

Thai knives are perfect free-hand tools for fruit and vegetable carving artists.They help to give structure and define areas that can be worked out with pre-shaped carving tools.


Due to the great demand of thai knives we now proudly present a new triangle® thai knife naturally "made in Solingen/Germany", featuring a flexible and razorsharp blade and an integrated marker tip. The blade is extremely flexible and thus can adapt to basically all carving materials and structures. Due to its special grinding the blade is fracture-proof and will perform the safest way possible. As the blade is ice-hardened it will always return to its original straight shape thanks to the convex cross-section. The integrated marker pin will help to pre-structure ornaments and to implement cutting lines. For a safe transport a storage tube is enclosed.

The triangle® thai knife is a true alternative or amendment to the thai knife with 2 blades. It was developed in close cooperation with professional carving artists.

triangle GREENGRIP: 100 % ecological

Green + Grip = GREENGRIP

It was the ambiente star itself: The new triangle® handle series GREENGRIP. This handle series does not come around with a "green" look - it truly is green. And goes for 100 % only:
- 100 % made from renewable resources
- 100 % biologically degradable
- 100 % made in Germany

For GREENGRIP the fossil raw materials that are usually taken for producing plastics are replaced by the natural material Lignin. And the Lingnin taken for GREENGRIP is even taken from certified German woodlands only.

GREENGRIP also offers great handling and a very concise colour. The premium quality of manufacturing guarantees an optimized usability.

GREENGRIP does offer a great alternative to classically manufactured kitchen utensils for all ecology-minded consumers. We did face the great rise of this awareness at ambiente 2013. For us GREENGRIP means a further step towards our vision of triangle® as a highly "green" enterprise. And we are very happy, that this step is rewarded by so many clients already.

How to get a special look for food

Present vitamines & Co impressively

Of course you can just put fruit and vegetable onto the table just as it is grown. But you can also serve food with a "Wow! You made that yourself?"-effect. And, let us be honest, we all love that kind of awareness. Fresh ingredients, a few high-quality kitchen utensils, and a bit of patience all mixed together with a pinch of fantasy, that is all you need. Apart from some ideas to open up your own creativity. This is why we recommend the book of Georg Hartung: Garnish & Decorating made easy.  Here you see how vitamines, calcium & Co can be easily and appetizingly set into scene. Apple or strawberry fans, radish mice, grapes formed from cucumber, turnip flowers, melon stars or tomato roses - you make your choice and follow the detailed step-by-step instructions (words + photos). What a great way to serve good food and impress your family members and guests with your culinary ideas along the way
Bibliography: Georg Hartung: Garnish and Decorating Made Easy. 96 pages, many coloured photos, 206 x 232 mm, paperback. US$ 19.99. ISBN: 978-0-7643-3932-5
Perfectly shaped: The triangle forming rings

Perfectly shaped: The triangle forming rings

triangle forming ring set

Simple things like desserts, crèmes but also vegetable or fruit can be brought into exceptional shapes with the help of forming rings, for they give shape to un-shaped food. The heart of rice, the mousse flower, the vegetable square or the fruit tower can now give joy to body and soul and arise attention when being served

Forming rings can be used in a very flexible manner. They can even give a very special look to cakes as they can separate ornaments within a baked cake. For this you just need to set an oiled forming ring onto the flat dough on the baking tray and then color the interior of the forming ring with food color. After baking you just need to remove the forming ring carefully. A "heartily" idea made easy.

Support of the St. Joseph's home

Quite some years ago we decided to celebrate christmas with triangle® in its very original tradition, in the grace of charity and helping others. Since then our clients and commercial partners simply receive a christmas card noting amongst others the social project we decided to support this year.
For christmas 2011 we settled for a social project of the Christliche Entwicklungsdienst (Christian Development Service, CED) in Chennai/South India, (ex-Madras). The CED here supports a poorhouse that gives shelter to people that have been left behind by their families or that have no relatives any more. In India this very often means living and dying on the streets. At St. Joseph's House a shelter is given to these people including regular meals, medical care, clothes and - most important of all - human care.
We are very happy to make a contribution to implementing the new solar system at St. Joseph's House, which will make daily life much easier there.

For more information on the work of the CED please have a look at www.ced-online.de.
