Personal Cookie Ovens

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The SideChef Oven Uses Pods of Dough to Bake Cookies Nearly Instantaneously

— November 8, 2016 — Art & Design
Just like the Easy Bake Ovens many people experimented with as children, a product called SideChef has been developed for making freshly baked treats on demand. Pegged as the "Keurig of Cookies," this smart oven give consumers a convenient and hassle-free way to enjoy their favorite baked goods anytime.

SideChef is a miniature oven that is specially designed for baking cookies. Similar to personal coffee makers such as Keurig, the oven works with single-serve pods that contain all the ingredients needed to prepare a cookie. There is no preheating required so all the user has to do is plop a pod into the machine and the oven will bake the cookie to perfection in less than 10 minutes. The oven is even connected to an app so that users can see the progress of their cookie as it bakes and figure out when to order more cookie pods.

For those who prefer their cookies fresh from the oven, the SideChef is the ultimate kitchen accessory.
Trend Themes
1. On-demand Baking - The SideChef Oven allows consumers to bake cookies instantly with single-serve pods, opening opportunities for on-demand baking innovations.
2. Connected Baking Appliances - The SideChef Oven's app integration creates possibilities for other smart baking appliances that offer real-time tracking and monitoring of food preparation.
3. Convenience-focused Kitchen Gadgets - The SideChef Oven represents a trend in the development of kitchen gadgets that prioritize convenience and ease of use for consumers.
Industry Implications
1. Smart Kitchen Appliances - The SideChef Oven showcases the potential for smart kitchen appliances that leverage connectivity and automation in food preparation.
2. Food Subscription Services - The SideChef Oven's single-serve pod system aligns with the rise of food subscription services, offering an opportunity for personalized, on-demand baking kits.
3. Bakery and Cafe Chains - The SideChef Oven presents an opportunity for bakery and cafe chains to expand their offerings by adopting a similar single-serve pod system for in-store or take-home baking convenience.
