Temperera
Design Project 2 (BFA2)
2026
Temperera is a design project carried out in collaboration with Nordic Chocolate, a bean to bar chocolate manufacturer in northern Sweden. Chocolate tempering can be a complex and difficult task; this project challenges this notion and analyses how the chocolate tempering process can be made less complicated through simplifying cooling analysis. The result, “Temperera” is a combination of an industrial tool and a home décor object. It aims to simplify the chocolate tempering process through allowing the user to easily analyse the cooling pattern of a chocolate sample and enabling them to adjust the bigger chocolate batch accordingly. It also functions as a chargeable décor light, becoming a stylish addition to the home environment when not in use, thus potentially broadening the appeal of chocolate production to a wider audience, using the Nordic Chocolate Innovation brand in the forefront.
Temperera features a rechargeable battery and comes pre-packed with a USB-C cable.
To ensure that the chocolate cools down quickly, the aluminium cooling block & chocolate container is put in the fridge before in preparation for the test.
The chocolate container is removable from the cooling block and features a hole at the bottom which will allow the user to push out the chocolate sample once solidified, reducing the number of times the device has to be cleaned.
