Chaudron-Kessel TOUPINE-Karussell mit Kinderantrieb

CAULDRON

Created in 2025

Eco-musical-culinary carousel powered by children

After parent-powered carousels, here comes the very first child-powered carousel !

When kids transform into vegetables and take their seats in the cauldron, the little chefs get to work—turning the

potato masher, the frying pan, and the mincer to set the carousel spinning. A slow-cooked stew of little ones,

seasoned to perfection!

In an authentic copper cauldron once used for cheese-making, our “vegetable” sculptures become comfortable

seats where children settle in. Wrapped in dyed leather, these unique creations—mushroom, carrot, cabbage, leek,

fennel, pepper, aubergine—gently spin to cook up the most delicious soup. Steam rises, the carousel turns, it

bubbles and gurgles to the lively tunes of an accordion, a trumpet, or a flute.
