Krups and All-Clad at MoRoCo Chocolat

Sunday, August 19, 2012
We went to MoRoCo Chocolat in Yorkville for the Night of Delight soirée by Krups and All-Clad. Amid the bubbly, chocolate fountains, macarons and s'mores, we got to check out All-Clad's latest cookware and the highly engineered marvels from Krups.

These two luxurious brands don't just look good, they are also technologically advanced instruments that cater to a more discerning clientele. We tried some coffee from the Krups Barista EA9000, which won't be out until 2013. It's equipped with its own burr grinder and digital controls. It's the only fully automatic one-touch-cappuccino machine with automatic rinsing. Pretty fancy. The video below better illustrates the point:

All-Clad specializes in bonding dissimilar metals to take advantage of various thermal and magnetic properties to create its advanced cookware. Depending on which line of cookware you choose, they either have aluminum, copper, or stainless steel cores in up to five layers. Some even have enhanced magnetic outside layers for induction cooking.

The Circolo fit right in at L'Oreal Fashion Week!

Monday, November 1, 2010
Mark is more of a coffee lover than I, but I fell in love with the aesthetics of the machine itself when I checked it out at L'Oreal Fashion Week.

The stylish Krups Nescafe Dolce Gusto Circolo comes in a number of different colours (red looked sleekest in my opinion). It retails for about $179.99 in Canada (plus the coffee and milk steamer capsules need to be bought but it appears on the Sears website that you get a starter pack of capsules when you purchase it, and the machine is currently $40 off). I figure if you're looking to take your home coffee experience to the next level, this is a good way to do it.

You can buy a variety of different cartridges, everything from macchiato to chococino to cappuccino - I tried the cappuccino and found it really delicious, it tasted like something you'd get at a more upscale coffee shop.

I was also told it's pretty easy to clean (that was one of my first concerns). Might be a good gift for the coffee-lover in your life :)

Yours in food (and coffee!),
