You can eat your water bottle!

Ooho! Climate-KIC's ‪‎UK Venture Competition 2015 winner is making a revolution with edible water bottle. Biodegradeable, hygenic and costs 1p per unit to make!

Inspired by the way nature encapsulate liquids using membranes, Ooho! proposes an alternative to the plastic bottle. After experimenting with the culinary technique of spherification with different ingredients, proportions and dimensions, a recipe was found to create “Ooho!” with a double gelatinous membrane and in different sizes.

Ooho! won the joint award with Alchemie Technologie, creating a digital way of dispensing dye for the textile industry.

Both winners took home € 20 000 of investment. They will go on to compete against entrepreneurs from across Europe.
