The Cult Cookware Brand We Love Has Launched Its Christmas Collection
Created in partnership with Le Creuset
The Christmas Collection
With heritage and heirlooms at its heart, over the last few years Le Creuset has developed a seasonal collection including tableware for a Christmas tablescape and lots of gifting options. As the pioneers in colourful cookware, Le Creuset also inspires with a festive seasonal palette – Cerise, its traditional cherry-red, is synonymous with the season, while Flint offers a beautiful neutral base for celebratory gatherings around the table.
There are practical yet iconic gifts so you can wrap up a treat for everyone on your list. Watch their eyes light up as they uncover their new favourite kitchen staple – a gift that will last a lifetime. From snowflake-printed casseroles to festive mugs, baking trays and even Santa-adorned plates, the Christmas collection will make any home feel special.
The Heritage
Since 1925, Le Creuset has been enjoyed by cooks and their families all over the world. The brand was established when the two founders developed a technique to enamel cast iron and bring colour into the kitchen. The same basic production process is still used today – and all Le Creuset Cast Iron Cookware is manufactured at the location of the original foundry, about two hours north of Paris.
Today, many of the products become heirlooms and are often passed down through the generations, making any Le Creuset purchase an investment backed by a reassuring lifetime guarantee.
The Colours
Since introducing coloured cookware with the iconic, molten-iron Volcanic, Le Creuset has introduced 200 colours into its ranges – the latest is a warm honey yellow called ‘Nectar’. For the designers at Le Creuset, its ‘cook in colour’ mantra is about self-expression: it’s about your style, your cooking and how you host. No other brand offers as many colours, so whatever your taste, you can find one to suit you. And best of all, you can take your dish from the kitchen straight to the table, so it’s perfect for cooking as well as entertaining.
The Performance & Quality
Cast Iron comes with several advantages. First, it’s designed for optimal heat convection, moisture retention and moisture/pressure release. As well as creating a range ideal for the development of flavour and texture when cooking, other benefits include its durability, how easy it is to clean, and there’s no need to season the pots and pans (they’re ready to go right out of the box). Importantly, when using them frequently for multiple dishes, they are non-reactive to acidic and other ingredients, they don’t absorb flavour, so nothing will transfer from one meal to another, and the exterior enamel is smooth – these products will not scratch smooth, ceramic or induction stovetops.
The Bestseller
The classic Cast Iron Signature Round Casserole is a fan favourite. Renowned for its excellent heat retention, this casserole is suitable for hob top and oven use, delivering moist, tender results for slow-simmered soups and stews. It can even be used for baking, too. Also very popular are the Toughened Non-Stick and 3-ply Stainless Steel ranges, which feature the full range of essentials that every cook needs to perfectly complement everyday cooking.
