The Fizz™ Screw On Ice-Cream Float Cup

By on Thursday, 20th May 2010 The Fizz™ Screw On Ice-Cream Float Cup thumbnail

The Fizz™ is a plastic cup that screws on to a plastic PET bottle (it fits most bottles with a screw thread) allowing you to create a mobile ice cream float – in other words, you can create your own ice-cream float on-the-go!

Once you screw the cup to a bottle, fill it up with ice cream, then insert a straw, and finally, squeeze the bottle. This fills the cup with soda, allowing you to sip out a mixture of ice cream and soda.

David Chodosh is the inventor of The Fizz™ and founder of Jonzo, Inc., a product design and development company located in Manhattan Beach, Calif.

With more than 18 years of design experience in toys and housewares, David has created new products for Hallmark, Mattel Toys, Hasbro, Burger King, among others.

His designs have been distributed at mass-market stores and quick service restaurants throughout North America, Europe and Japan.

David created The Fizz™ as a way to put a fun new spin on an all-American classic: the root beer float. He sought a way to simplify the process of making a soda float, at the same time making it more fun to drink.

His concept was to devise a “mixing chamber” that would separate the ingredients and allow the float drinker to mix them as desired, and also make it fun visually as the soda mixes with the ice cream to create an eruption of foam.

After many experiments and prototypes, he arrived at design that was both innovative and easy to produce.

The cup is reusable, but not dishwasher safe.
