Vaka
Design Project 2 (BFA2)
2026
Vaka is a chocolate tempering concept developed in collaboration with Nordic Chocolate Innovation, exploring how professional techniques can become more precise, accessible, and engaging within smaller-scale production. The project focuses on supporting users in understanding and controlling the crystallisation process through clear temperature feedback and guided interaction. By combining controlled cooling with an intuitive interface, Vaka enables users to refine their tempering with confidence while learning through use. The design balances technical performance with a calm, contemporary form, positioning the product within both professional and domestic kitchen environments.
