  • Sandwhichs made super easy

    I actually had a different one but that one just got old and stopped working and I have used this one at my parents house a few times when the kids were hungry and we needed a good feed but quick and easy one too. What I loved the most about this one was the quick easy clean up afterwards! I like to clean as I’m going or I like to quickly clean up if I can before I eat so I can just relax and eat and now need to worry about clean up after and this takes a grand total of 3 secconds. Quick wipe over wih some water and it’s clean and ready to go again! Amazing! And with 3 kids I like clean up as minamalised as possible, these 3 kids make enough mess haha!

  • Really impressed and highly recommended

    I absolutely loved trying out the Sunbeam Cafe Flat Press. I really loved the fact the the high control means my sandwich’s won’t be squished, which is great. I love that it was easy to clean and store. It’s not bulky in design so after use, storing it in my cupboard was easy. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a sandwich press.

  • Love the Sunbeam Cafe Style Press & Grill

    Very impressed with the Sunbeam Cafè Style 4-Slice Sandwich Press & Grill! Food is cooked faster and evenly on each side, clean up is a breeze, you can wipe it clean in one go. And I love that it can stand upright and takes up less bench space.

    My teens love using it too, which means less work for me when they can cook for themselves.

  • What a beauty!

    Winter is for… Toasties and Soup!

    We were recently lucky enough to be asked to trial and review the Sunbeam 4 Slice Press and Grill!

    The patented AnyHeight Lever is a total game changer for me! I can now adjust my sandwich press to suit whatever we’re toasting or grilling!

    No more flat toasties and squished wraps!

    Better still, the non stick hot plates heat up super fast for more even cooking – you can even cook the perfect steak on it!

    I would definitely recommend this one for easy dinners and quick lunches!

    We also found that for grilling meat, there was no need for extra fats or oils! Winning!

  • A fabulous appliance to have!

    I’ve seen my sister use her sandwich press to heat and cook a
    huge variety of things so I was very excited to try out the Sunbeam Cafe Style 4 Slice Sandwich Press & Grill.

    I love how easy it is to cook and heat in it with its non stick goodness. The curved bottom plate makes removing crumbs a breeze and the press stands up for easy storage.

    You can lock the top plate at any height which is great for open melts and not squashing different types of foods. This is an appliance that will get lots of use and will sit on our bench rather than be packed away.

  • Makes cooking simpler, easier and faster

    I’m very impressed with my new Sunbeam Cafè Style 4-Slice Sandwich Press & Grill! We’ve used it to make lamb burgers, corn fritters and pancakes and they all turned out really great! Food is cooked faster and evenly on each side, clean up is a breeze (no messy pans to wash afterwards), you can literally wipe it clean in one go. And I love that it can stand upright and takes up less bench space.

    My teens love using it too, they love how easy it is to cook with and clean, which means less work for me.

  • Very versatile and easy to clean and store away

    This arrived in a nice box and when I first saw it, I really liked the size, perfect for us, a family of 3. One thing I didn’t realized is that the 4-slice sandwich press doesn’t have the corrugated top for grill marks, so that’s one to take note if you’re after the grill marks, this one doesn’t have it. I’ve tried using this as normal sandwich press, and I’m super impressed with how it toasted my bread for a short time. I’ve also tried making pancakes here then a pancake sandwich. It works really well and it is absolutely non-stick. it’s very easy to use and clean. Even melted cheese is very easy to remove. I use this everyday now. And the best part for me is storing this, there’s a lock to keep it folded and this can stand up or be stored in minimal space. I love it and would really recommend.

  • Great, versatile appliance to own

    This Sandwich Press and Grill is the ideal size for my family of four.
    It heats up and is ready to use in next to no time at all and was great to be able to grill halloumi and sear the asparagus before adding to our focaccia sandwiches. Much easier and less cleaning up this way because we didn’t need to use an extra fry pan first, everything could be done on the grill.
    We love that it stands up for storage, so it takes up less bench space in the pantry which is a plus!

    Overall, this is a great, versatile product to have in your kitchen.

  • Great for many meals

    I absolutely love the Sunbeam Cafe Style 4 slice Sandwhich press and grill is so versatile. It’s not just for a typical cheese toastie. I was able to grill Pattie’s and bread at the same time for lunch with my daughter yesterday. I then just added some toppings avocado, lettuce, cucumber and onion. I think next will be bacon and eggs. It’s fantastic you can adjust it to many different heights. It’s so quick and easy to use plus cleaning is a breeze. It’s already a hit in our home.

  • Great first impression.

    On first impression I’m really impressed with the 4 Slice Sandwhich maker. I love how light weight it is and how convenient it is to store upright so it isn’t taking up so much space. It will be great not only for sandwiches but for other quick meal or snack options as well because of that adjustable height control. Being easy to clean is a big plus being a busy mum of two. Looking forward to the creations we make using it for our family. I’m sure my daughter will want a traditional cheese toastie first. Stay tuned for our first Sandwhich pictures

I fondly remember slow, summer afternoons with family and friends gathered around a table of delicious finger-food during my childhood – the adults chatting and laughing, the kids pretending they understood the jokes. My parents had continued their Mediterranean traditions long after settling in Australia – and the simple joy of an effortlessly elegant gathering was one of my favourites.

What I don’t remember is my parents ever being stressed about the gatherings. It all just seemed to ‘come together’. Ah, how times have changed!

There’s something about the Italian style of entertaining that’s still so alluring in our fast-paced family lives. The idea of La Dolce Vita: a sweet life surrounded by family, friends, food and minimal fuss. Which is why we’ve enlisted the help of the entertaining experts at Sandhurst to share easy tips for elegant, memorable summer get-togethers.

We also asked our community of mums to share their tried and true, easy summer entertaining ideas, and we can’t wait to share them with you!

Euro-Inspired Entertaining

Sandhurst

Before we dive into the delicious world of sumptuous, simple summer entertaining, it helps to know a little about the inspiration behind our guide. And that’s the concept of Italian entertaining – where time is taken to lovingly grow ingredients, before enjoying them with those you love.

Established in 1988, Sandhurst was born from the time-honoured traditions of generations of the family behind the brand – a proud Italian Australian family passionate about quality produce sourced from world’s best growers.

At the helm of Sandhurst are brothers Mimmo and Ray Lubrano, who live and breathe the impeccable ingredients that become the centrepiece of so many gatherings in Australian family homes.

“Tradition is what we stand for. We’re custodians of Italian values,” explained Mimmo. “When we go to Italy we see it in our grandparents, our parents came from Italy in the 50s. The tradition is a set of values: honesty, teamwork, participation, family – all the things you would associate with Italian family are the values.”

And it’s these beautiful values that make summer gatherings in Australia an extension of the European table.

Easy Summer Entertaining Starts With … Time Saving Secrets!

Sandhurst

A sweet summer of entertaining doesn’t need to be stressful. In fact, it shouldn’t be. It’s a chance to spend time with loved ones. To press pause on life and make memories. And it can be simple! So here are some really easy tips for making your home the place where everyone wants to gather this summer.

Create An Entertaining Kit

Whether it’s pre-planned or you’ve had friends or family drop-in, having a few things ready to go immediately melts away any stress. Here are some things to include in a summer entertaining kit:

  • A red table cloth: It instantly says festive!
  • Some platters and serving dishes
  • Candles
  • Some quality antipasto ingredients that simply need to be decanted and enjoyed!

Many Hands Make Light Work

As mums, we tend to be our own worst enemy when it comes to delegating tasks. But remember, a summer of entertaining is about creating memories – not perfection. So let the kids help, and accept offers from your guests who’d like to bring something along to share.

“It can be overwhelming, so just delegate, and prepare. I do one dish prep per day and pop them in the freezer. Then they just need to be heated up. Let the kids do the decorating for you – plus keeps them busy!” – MoM Member Kirsty

Decorate With Happiness

There’s no need to pull out your finest crystal to pull off an elegant get together. Take a look around your home and garden to see what will bring your table to life. A bowl of lemons is a gorgeous addition, as is a bunch of gum leaves. Keep it simple and understated.

Sandhurst

Finger Food For The Win

Nothing says simple summer elegance more than a charcuterie board (or three!). When my friends and our families get together, it’s our go-to – every family is asked to ‘bring a board’. Some do savoury and some sweet, so we’re covered for a long afternoon of catching up.

“Food wise, I keep it simple by doing cold deli meats, cheeses, fresh fruits and veggies.” – MoM Member

But just because boards are easy to put together, doesn’t mean they can’t ooze elegance. And that comes down to including quality ingredients. Choosing Sandhurst products is the easiest way to guarantee the highest quality ends up on your table. We love the premise behind the brand: from our family to yours – it invokes that nostalgic feeling of shared stories, history, gatherings and family.

How To Put Together A Charcuterie Board 

Sandhurst article image

There are no right or wrong ways to create a charcuterie board, but to ensure a balance of textures and flavours try to include:

La Dolce Vita!

A summer of sophisticated entertaining doesn’t have to be hours and hours of work. We don’t want it to be! By grabbing some beautiful ingredients to fill your pantry next time you’re shopping, you’ll know that at a moment’s notice you’ll have everything you need for a Euro-inspired gathering. No fuss, but plenty of substance and style!

  • I’ve really needed some inspiration this year for Christmas and this is great! I Love a good charcuterie board and I think I may do one this year for the family as well as all the regular Christmas trimmings. I have 6 kids and all the extended family coming to entertain and feed!

  • I’m loving all the ideas here in the comments and pictures above! I love to be able to just look at what others have done and straight up copy it. Takes all the thinking energy out of entertaining!
    Such a good and trusted brand to purchase over the silly season! You know you are faring great quality and value!

  • We often have homemade pizza nights aka fakeaway night! And my pizza is always on a low carb Pizza base with roasted and sundried tomato and capsicum. My fav combo with grilled chicken and a swirl of peri peri mayonnaise! Making our own is always better than takeaway versions and healthier!

  • Looked so good I couldn’t wait – Dove in off the end of my bread baton and swirled around in a couple of cheesy dips only to finish up at the Sandhurst stackers and sun-dried olives, who needs a Holiday when there is one in the kitchen, I can take any day.

  • I have been buying Sandhurst Kalamata Olives, Sandhurst Semi-Dried Tomatoes, Sandhurst Baby Capers, Sandhurst Sicilian Green Olives for years as our kitchen staple adding that extra flavours to our dishes. I buy Sandhurst products for Gift Baskets as presents for family and friends and they love this idea as I add a chopping board and a knife and crackers and cheese for a celebration of flavours.

  • I have been a purchaser of Sandhurst goods ever since they first appeared on supermarket shelves and still buy it to this day. The Sandhurst brand is the best without a doubt. This year I have not been able to find the Sandhurst cheese stuffed baby capsicums anywhere. I have tried to get on the Sandhurst site, but no luck with what they make. Help – these are such a wonderful addition to a salad.

  • I Love a good charcuterie board. I Love all the different options all on the one board. I love to do a chocolate board when we have guests over, it’s a fun way to do dessert after dinner. The kids love seeing everything layed out so they can pick and choose.

    Reply

  • This is great for the grandchildren they love them as they use them as finger food and make up their own meal and use plenty of ingredients including meat and cheese on the dips and crackers. We keep it simple with the Sandhurst’s products as it is a meal in every jar and the kids love them.

  • This looks like the perfect relaxed way to have a picnic! I am loving the idea of this! Just bring along lots of fillings and plenty of cheeses and breads and of course a little alcohol and you’re all set. This sounds like the perfect way to catch up with friends!

  • Charcuterie boards are the absolute best! We do these so often in the warmer months because there’s something for the whole family. People pick and choose what they like and there’s no complaints because there’s so many different options to choose from, everyone is happy. It’s such a simple stressful way to make dinner.

  • I absolutely adore finger food and this style of feeding people when we have family and friends at our home; or when we go out for a picnic, bbq or get together. These types of food are so easy to source and to buy and to prepare and to happily eat.


    • Yes I agree, finger foods are easy and yummie ! And you can assemble a healthy enough plate (certainly when you add salads, cheeses, nuts, fruits, boiled eggs, olives and rustic breads) that it can certainly can replace a meal (either lunch or dinner). Everyone happy and no hours of preparation in the kitchen :)



      • Also; the other bonus is less mess to clean up when cutlery is not needed. Finger food is the best for laid back and relaxed get togethers. There is always such a clam and relaxed feel to a finger food meal without the need for any fancy and stuffy table settings.
