Le Creuset Essential Non-Stick Ceramic 8-Piece Cookware Set

Before First Use

Enjoy unboxing your new purchase! (And make sure to remove the labels and packaging.)

Wash your Le Creuset product in warm, soapy water; then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Condition the interior non-stick surface by rubbing vegetable or corn oil over the entire surface, using a paper towel. When you’re done, rinse your product with hot water, then dry thoroughly.

DO NOT condition the black exterior sidewall.

Cooking

Stay protected – always use oven gloves when handling anything hot.

We recommend using Le Creuset Silicone Tools or wooden/heat-resistant plastic tools. Metal utensils can also be used with care. They should not be used harshly or scraped over the non-stick surface. To avoid damage, avoid knocking metal utensils on the top rim of non-stick coated products. DO NOT use hand-held electric or battery-operated beaters or blenders, knives, or sharp tools and implements inside non-stick coated pans, as they may damage the surface.

Use the product on the most appropriately sized hob ring — it’ll make your food cook more evenly, and reduce the risk of damage to the handles and sides. This is especially important on induction hobs: if you use the wrong-sized ring, there’s a risk the hob won’t ‘recognise’ the product.

Never slide the product on any glass-topped hob or stovetop, as this may damage the product base and the glass. Instead, always lift the product on and off or across the surface.

Never place your product on the floor of your oven – it can increase the cooking temperature, leading to faster, uncontrolled cooking which could cause damage.

Cleaning

Always cool the product for a few minutes before cleaning. Do not plunge it into or fill it with cold water when hot; excessive surface temperature changes may damage the product.

We recommend washing by hand in warm, soapy water rather than cleaning in the dishwasher, as this will help the non-stick surface last longer.

Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or metal, harsh abrasive or very stiff cleaning pads or brushes on any of the surfaces.

After dishwashing, the cooking surface should be reconditioned before each subsequent use, as constant dishwashing may cause marking or discolouring that can affect the release properties of non-stick surfaces.

To prevent damage to the exterior, interior and rim, use a suitable cookware protector in between products when stacking for storage.

Founded in 1925 in the quaint town of Fresnoy-le-Grand, France, Le Creuset has become a global icon in premium cookware. Established by two Belgian industrialists—casting specialist Armand Desaegher and enamelling expert Octave Aubecq—the brand revolutionised cookware by introducing the first enamelled cast iron cocotte. Its signature Flame orange hue, inspired by molten iron, set the tone for a century of vibrant, durable, and functional design. ​

Each piece of Le Creuset cookware is handcrafted in the original French foundry, undergoing meticulous inspection by skilled artisans. This commitment to quality ensures that every item not only performs exceptionally but also becomes a cherished heirloom passed down through generations. ​

Over the decades, Le Creuset has expanded its product range beyond enamelled cast iron to include stoneware, stainless steel, non-stick cookware, and kitchen accessories. Despite this growth, the brand remains true to its roots, blending traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation.

Celebrating its 100th anniversary in 2025, Le Creuset continues to inspire culinary enthusiasts worldwide, offering cookware that combines timeless style with unparalleled performance.
