揭秘咖啡杯的真身，真正的咖啡杯竟由此制成

“The moment of knowing the cup would actually stand was super-exciting,” he recalls. “After such a long time, you have to really believe in an idea and that it can eventually work. It was overwhelming to drink that first coffee out of the cup. It proved to be totally worth the wait.” And the fact that his creation has proven commercially successful is just the icing on the cake. Kaffeeform coffee cups and saucers are now present in ten shops across Europe, and the company can hardly keep up with demand, regularly selling out of its stock online. And they’ve only been in business for a year.

理奇耐回忆说，当得知这种杯子不会融化，可以坚挺地放置时，他欣喜若狂。“研究了这么长时间，你就必须得相信这个想法是可行的，而且它最终可以实现。当我喝到用这种杯子泡出来的第一杯咖啡时，心情百感交集。这么久的等待没有白费。”锦上添花的是，他的发明还取得了商业成功，带来了经济效益。现在欧洲有十家实体店出售Kaffeeform 咖啡杯具，但是仍然供不应求，公司的网店隔一段时间就会卖断货，而他们才刚营业一年。

“It basically all happened through word of mouth,” Lechner says about the success of his company. “It’s amazing to think of some of the places where orders have come from. A lot of individuals, but also a café in Saudi Arabia, Ritz Carlton Toronto, and the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo to sell in their museum [gift shop].”
