A bright, long-lasting kitchen worktop as the perfect backdrop for pictures

Helena is, in fact, a very rich colour with the perfect balance of grey and white tones and a delicate crackle that brings a depth typical of the stone that inspires it, onyx.

But in addition to its beauty, Dekton Helena offers powerful technical properties that have made it Moltke Dahl’s favourite choice, such as high resistance to scratches, stains, heat and even fire, which it can withstand without affecting its appearance or properties.

Therefore, hot utensils, electrical appliances, pots and pans can be placed directly on the worktop without risk of danger or damage. Dekton is even more resistant to abrasion than granite: household utensils will not scratch Moltke Dahl’s new worktop.

“I love how easy it is to work on this worktop. It is very easy to clean and maintain, which takes away a lot of daily worries”, says the pastry chef. All you need is to wipe it with water and neutral soap: due to its low porosity, Dekton is a highly resistant surface that remains unaffected by stubborn stains such as wine, coffee, ink and rust. All stains will be removed from the ultracompact surface with one effortless wipe.

Furthermore, splashes and drops of everyday cleaning products such as bleach, drain cleaners or oven degreasers, and kitchen utensils, as already mentioned, do not cause any damage to the material. “I don’t have to worry about where to place the ingredients and utensils, so I can focus on being creative”, says Moltke Dahl.

And she definitely is: together with her friend and colleague Maja Vase, she has written two cookbooks, Lykken er Chokolade and Lykken er Is, and also works as a recipe developer, food writer and food stylist, as well as being a creative consultant, speaker and critic. Therefore, every minute that she can save from the small tasks of everyday life and devote to her passions counts. According to Molkte Dahl, Dekton helps her to focus on what really matters and forget about everything else.
