The 'Flexi Funnel' is a multipurpose kitchen funnel that was designed by Zanwen Li of ZANdesign in order to save on space and time.
The cooking accessory is made from a silicone gel that allows it to change shape and become more compact when not in use. When it's needed however, the kitchen funnel can expand to safely pour large amounts of liquid at a time into small openings.
Zanwen Li's design works by simply pulling the bottom of the Flexi Funnel into the base, making it just half the size that it was before in a matter of seconds. Once it's in its compact form, the kitchen funnels can we used as a container to hold or pour liquids as well. The handy devices are offered in either bright orange or lime green.
