This post is part of MOLD’s roundup of the best food design projects shown at Stockholm Design Week 2015.

A materials exploration from Catrin Sundberg and Kristel Almquist, recent design graduates from Linnaeus University, Gelifoam plays with the idea of candy as a raw material. By combining candy with wood, “the edible encounters the non-edible and the organic the artificial,” the designers write.

Besides sample materials, the project resulted in two colorful stools using Gelifoam for the seat and wooden dowels for legs.
