Le Creuset’s classic stoneware dishes sit in the brand’s everyday oven-to-table range, competing with the likes of Denby and Mason Cash for reliable bakeware that looks smart on the table. This set gives you two square sizes — 14cm for sides and individual bakes, and 23cm for larger portions — so you’re not stuck using an oversized dish for everything.
Who are these dishes best for?
If you cook a mix of small and mid-sized dishes, the pairing makes sense: the smaller dish suits crumbles, roasted veg or a couple of portions of mac and cheese, while the larger one handles a family gratin or brownies. Le Creuset stoneware is made to cope with heat changes, so it’s suited to moving from oven to serving without feeling too delicate, and the glazed finish is there to resist staining and make washing up less of a chore.
- 14cm dish: better for sides, dips and single-serve bakes
- 23cm dish: more room for mains, traybakes and batch cooking
