Nigiri Sushi Rice Press

It takes a sushi chef 7 years training to become an expert. DesignEdge was approached to design a new type of machine to simplify and demistify the making of Nigiri rice blocks.

The design consists of a rice loader with a plunger, a sliding mould tray with an ejector and a presentation tray. Parts were designed for FDA approval and easily dismantled for dishwashing.

In addition, DesignEdge created the packaging design, instruction leaflet and corporate branding. DesignEdge also sourced and managed the manufacture of the product in Malaysia.
