As South Aussies welcome the arrival of two new Kitchen Warehouse cooking superstores in Gepps Cross and Payneham, foodies are firing up and leaning into summer home entertaining in a big way.
These incredible cookware warehouses are your one-stop-shop for anything and everything cooking. Think pots and pans, tableware, knife sets, even cocktail coupes that make a statement. We’re not kidding when we say it’s a wonderland for home cooking.
With everything you could need for home cooking under one roof, Kitchen Warehouse is perfectly placed to give us the low-down on what’s set to be hot this summer (aside from the weather).
The design team is on the pulse, bringing out three innovative new product lines that address directly where the demand is, and now you can check them out yourself.
Designed for home cooks, and more importantly, people who love eating a good home-cooked meal, if you value performance, durability and some pretty neat designs, these are for you.
The latest releases from in-house brand Wolstead are setting the tone for home cooking habits. More people are entertaining at home. DIY indulgence is on the rise. Home cooks are investing in fewer products meaning only the best and most functional earn their place in the kitchen.
Kitchen Warehouse CEO Peter Macaulay said, “Summer cooking is all about enjoyment, versatility and confidence in your tools, and that’s exactly what Wolstead is designed to deliver.”
“Wolstead is for those who know. Who understands that great cooking starts with performance, not hype,” Macaulay said.
This season in cookware is all about versatility, long-term performance and everyday applicability. The new range supports indoor cooking, outdoor entertaining and fantastic results while keeping it nice and simple.
This first release is the Wolstead Bliss Soft Serve and Slushy Maker, perfect for those hot summer arvos. The appliance makes ice-cold drinks, frozen treats and soft serves at home. Unlike other machines, it features a built-in compressor that freezes liquids evenly with no pre-freezing or ice required. It comes with five preset programs, including soft serve, slushy, cocktail, milkshake and frappé, and customisable texture controls so you can get that perfect consistency. Plus, if you’re feeling a little extra, it’ll create ice-cold cocktails and boozy desserts and keep them cold for up to six hours with its drip-free pouring spout. What’s not to love?
Next up is a summer essential. The Wolstead Ember Cast Iron Cookware collection meets the demand for timeless, durable cookware. Each pan is made from premium cast iron for exceptional heat retention and triple seasoned for a natural non-stick finish right from the get go. There are even enamelled options for those wanting an easy-care, non-reactive finish. Succulent steaks, beautifully seasoned burgers, flavourful pork chops, you name it. Use it in the kitchen, on the outdoor grill, or even over an open fire. These pans are built for longevity, and they’re as durable as you could ever need. Plus, the Ember pans are considerably lighter than traditional cast iron.
Completing the line-up is the Wolstead Pro Steel Triply Stainless Steel Cookware range. This is the brand’s most premium stainless steel offering to date, endorsed by chef Charlie Carrington, who you may know for working at one of Gordon Ramsay’s Michelin-starred restaurants. The professional-grade triply construction features an aluminium core bonded between stainless steel layers to give you perfectly even heat distribution from base to rim and precise control. Designed to go above and beyond commercial standards, the range includes flared pouring rims, internal measurement markings, and is backed by a lifetime warranty. Plus the design is sure to draw some attention.
So whether it’s frozen cocktails you’re after, or smoky seared meat that’ll make the neighbours incredibly jealous, these are the three cookware items that’ll mean you’re cooking (and eating) like a pro all summer.
“These launches reflect how Australians are really cooking at home in 2026,” Macaulay said. “You’re not paying for a fancy name, you’re investing in cookware and appliances that earn their place in your kitchen.”
If you’re after any of these essentials, plus a huge range of other quality cookware, pop in to Kitchen Warehouse or shop online anytime.
