At the cake server design „Cesi n’est pas une treulle” star designer Philippe Starck has let his fantasy and creativity flow. An object emerged that naturally has everything a good cake server should have. The special something, as usual, comes from Starck’s exceptional designs.

Apparently the “Ceci n’est pas une treulle” cake server reminds of a trowel as craftsmen and constructors use. This is not by chance, its name “Ceci n’est pas une treulle” proves it, it means as much as “This is not a trowel”.

Philippe Starck used the design of a famous instrument, the trowel, and brought it to a different area, with “Ceci n’est pas une treulle”. The functional use has thereby been slightly modified, but when one thinks about the trowel appearance, nearby a question emerges: why did nobody else have this idea before?

Regarding its quality, it is a wonderful cake server without a doubt. Not only the name Alessi stands for this, but also the high quality proceeding out of stainless steel and maple wood.
