The project “Breakfast Assistant” is designed to make a home cooked meal on-the-go. Its main function is to be able to make eggs, toast, or whatever the user chooses to make for breakfast, and to be stored in a small container, which makes it easier to bring in the car. This is designed to fit no larger than a piece of toast. The idea for the user is to cook the toast, then use the bread mold to form the eggs so it will perfectly fit, then to add whatever else desired, then store away using the lid, and the spatula. This product also contains a spatula which is used to scoop the breakfast up. Once the breakfast is fully assembled, the spatula wraps over the container for minimal space usage, as well as a strap to secure the meal inside.

Project Statement

Comes with: 

Toast Shaper, Toast Shaped Lid, Folding Spatula

Who: 

This gadget is intended to be for an on-the-go individual who intends to enjoy a good breakfast. It is directed towards people who are in a rush, and need something that won’t take up more of their time. It is quick, it is easy, and it is reusable. The average audience of this product is organized, likely in their 20’s, with a full time job, or multiple jobs. 

When: 

This gadget is intended for the entire breakfast eating experience. You use the shaper to create a toast shape out of eggs, sausage, pancakes, or whatever you so choose, and use the spatula to flip food while cooking. Then place the lid on top of the shaper, and flip it so the lid makes the bottom. Secure the lid with the elastic attached to the spatula.

Design Requirements

Why: 

This gadget is intended to leave enough time to enjoy your food in the morning, and even for the busiest of people, to enjoy later in the day. People skip breakfast all the time, so by making breakfast as easy as possible, people might not just have a coffee and run, and instead think more in the morning and enjoy their time. This experience is intended to make people more aware and more time efficient. 

Emotion: 

Cheerful, Content, Relaxed. The idea is to make the busy person think more and appreciate the morning more, before heading out to work, or on the way to work. When we eat, we generally find ourselves thinking more, and if you skip breakfast you don't get that extra time to appreciate life. If the busy person makes a quick egg and eats it along the way instead of picking up just a coffee, they would likely feel more content and energized for the rest of the day.
