Pâtapâtes
In the evenings, we don't always have time to prepare balanced dinners. So we opt for simple, effective options: pasta, fast food or ready meals... Unfortunately, these eating habits not only impact our children's health, but also disrupt their understanding of nutrition.
Pâtapâtes offers a range of fresh pasta products containing all the nutrients needed for a complete meal: vegetables, proteins and starches. Designed for families, Pâtapâtes lets children get involved in meal preparation in a fun way. Based on the principle of modeling clay, the child makes various pasta shapes using the tools included in each pack.
Once the pasta has been shaped, the family can enjoy a delicious meal there and then, or leave it to dry ready to eat on a busy evening.
This project has been selected as part of Design L'Expo 2023 and will be exhibited at La Cale 2 Créateurs from 24th January 2024 to 10th March 2024.

"The Food Design Lab focuses on the major food issues of tomorrow, inviting 4th and 5th year students to hone their design skills.
Addressing health issues and a new way of eating together, Cathelle offers a fun, hands-on activity involving colorful, do-it-yourself vegetable pasta. By involving children in the preparation of daily meals, they play at "eating better" and learn the basics of nutrition. Cathelle is also a winner of the Ecotrophélia competition, where she was awarded the "Students with guts" prize for audacity." Aude Messager, Course Leader for the Food Design Lab
