Nothing is more important than a color-coordinated morning. Rushing out the door in clashing colors is a sure way to upset the balance of the day. Mornings can be tricky things, and tripping over an eyesore of a breakfast is an easy way to start the day off on the wrong foot. Luckily, there is a solution.

Few things hit the spot quite like a glass of freshly-squeezed juice. Healthy and nutritious, every sip refreshes in a way that does not compare to the stuff that comes out of a carton. Yet, convenience wins, and more often than not if juice is to be had, it will be poured from a half-gallon container. It doesn’t have to be that way.

Offering the convenience of countertop accessibility, the Krups Citrus Press provides easy access to freshly-squeezed juice. Featuring a pour spout and a motorized lever, all that stands in the way of having fresh juice is a press of the lever. That and some limes, lemons, oranges or grapefruit to squeeze too, of course.

Because it is a bread box! An Apple Bread Box. Holds two loaves of bread… or a whole buncha apples.

Advertising firm Colle + McVoy created an innovative campaign for Caribou Coffee by transforming bus stops into mock toaster ovens. Complete with real working heaters, the larger than life installations are designed to promote toasted breakfast sandwiches.

From the firm:

To help Caribou Coffee launch its hot and fresh Daybreaker breakfast sandwiches, we decided to heat things up a bit. To do this, we created ovens out of transit shelters, complete with real heaters and working clocks. This not only allowed us to showcase Caribou’s new “Hot ‘n Wholesome” menu items, it also benefited Minnesotans during their frigid winter commutes.

Oh, and because it is the point after all, here’s the website for Caribou Coffee.
