  • Such a big sandwich press!

    This was such a big sandwich press, i couldn’t believe the area and how much room was left after my families sandwiches were on. Excellent quality and great lock handle feature. Slides easily upright in the cupboard. Can’t wait to try move on this and easily use it for more brekkies and lunches.

  • Great for pan frying foods

    This will definitely replace our BBQ or regular pan frying – we cooked salmon on this and it was amazing. And the adjustable top means both sides get cooked without being squashed, and those grill lines are so sexy. Love the grill lines, can’t get those from my regular pans, only on the BBQ. And the skin is crispy. And no oil required. It is also very easy to clean afterwards.

  • More than just a sandwich press!

    I love this sandwich press – which is more than just a sandwich press. It does a fantastic job of cooking just about anything that you would use a pan or BBQ..and without the messy clean up afterwards. And it’s big enough to cook 6 sandwiches, or multiple items – saves time when making breakfast for the family.
    The grill heats up fast and supplies enough heat to cook your food, not just sandwiches. I have used it for sandwiches, wraps, bacon and chicken skewers, and for crisping up pies and pastries if I am too lazy to chuck into the oven (would nuke in microwave first).
    One outstanding feature is the ability to lock at any height – so bye bye squashed sandwiches! Also great when crisping up my pies, i can lower the top enough so it touches or is close enough to heat the top of the pie/pastry without squashing them. if I am making items like cheese toasties where it’s ok to squash, then I the lock is not needed. However, for other items I can lower the lid to heat without squashing the food.
    The grill is also very easy to clean – just wipe with paper towel. The non stick surface is excellent quality, and everything just comes off so easily. I do avoid sharp objects and stick to using plastic or silicon utensils to ensure grill surface lasts longer and to avoid scratches.
    You can also lock the grill so it can stand up and be easily stored away upright. It’s very easy to store (it lives next to my chopping boards!) and is not too heavy either.
    Very happy with this grill – so happy this is now mine to use every day!

  • Game changer for our large family!

    Our favorite thing about the sunbeam 6 slice sandwich grill and press is the size. Being able to cook 6 sandwiches at once is such a timesaver in our large family. It is also so quick to heat up and super easy to clean after use. We have used to to toast sandwiches and wraps, banana bread, veggie sticks and even sizzle steaks.

    Sunbeam Cafè Style 6-Slice Sandwich Press & Grill Is my new bff!
    It’s has been a game changer in our home, not only does it heat up super fast but it can cook 6, yep 6 toasties at once! But it does so much more than that, we have used it to make pancakes, cook bacon, I even used it to cook steak for hubby which we then turned into steak toasted sandwiches! It’s super easy to clean and can be stored standing up, I love that this machine has come into my life!

  • Fabulous for a large family

    We are thrilled with the sunbeam sandwich press. It’s perfect for our large family as it can toast 6 sandwiches at once. It’s quick and very easy to use. It is also so easy to clean with a quick wipe with a damp cloth. We have also used it to grill halloumi cheese and veggies and it works perfectly. We highly recommend this sandwich press.

  • Game changer!!!

    I actually was able to make a full steak sandwich with this even being able to caremlise onions! If you were thinking it’s just a sandwich press, I assure you- it’s so much more than meets the eye!! It also cleans like a dream as well and we all know that’s high on the list of a busy mums!

  • What a game changer!!

    This Grill was able to make the tastiest steak sandwich completely- it even caramelised my onions! Having the ribbed grill on one side and the flat grill on the other was a smart innovation, as it kept my beautiful sandwich intact and the steak I cooked did not flatten too much.

    I have to say, my favourite feature is the ease of cleaning the grill- not only did I cook it “all in one” but I simply wiped it down after. So I have less dishes, but more time for eating my snacks now

  • Mexican Steak And Capsicum Tortilla Wrap were YUM

    I really wanted to test out cooking meat on the Sunbeam Cafè Style 6-Slice Sandwich Press & Grill. I found the Mexican Steak And Capsicum Tortilla Wrap recipe on the Sunbeam website, and put it to the test.
    Cooking the meat was simple and I loved how it left grill marks on the meat and vegetables. If you want gill marks on both sides just flip your meat over halfway through cooking. There is a pull out drip tray to catch all the excess fat from cooking meats or to wipe crumbs into.
    Clean up was easy, with a quick wipe down with paper towel.
    This recipe was super tasty and a huge hit with the family. I love that I was able to cook everything on the one appliance.
    The Sunbeam Cafè Style 6-Slice Sandwich Press & Grill is a great appliance for your kitchen. Would highly recommend.

  • Gets better!

    Today we cooked ham and cheese crossiants in the 2 – slice sandwich and grill press. The cooked amazingly. They were toasted so well and crunchy without being burnt. The cheese was melted and the ham was hot. This has been an amazing product. We could fit 3 crossiants in the 2 – slide. Definitely looking at investing into the 6 – slice

  • Amazing 2 in 1 Sandwich Press and Grill

    Sunbeam Café Style 6-Slice Sandwich Maker Grill & Press

    If you have a larger family then the Sunbeam Café Style 6-Slice Sandwich Maker Grill & Press
    Is for you. WOW, the grill surface is huge. So much room to cook a number of items at the same time. I’m impressed that it is both a grill and a sandwich press in one.

    My kids were pumped to see we finally had a sandwich press and were quick to put it to the test. My eldest daughter who’s 12 years old, toasted some wraps in it easily. She also toasted her bagel in it. One of the great features of this grill and press, is that you have a lever which locks the upper plate to any height position you like. There is no excuse for squashing your food anymore.

    Heating up was super-fast, only taking a couple of minutes. Once heated the READY button will turn green to let you know your good to go.

    The Sunbeam Café Style 6-Slice Sandwich Maker Grill & Press tucked away neatly in my cupboard standing up, so it doesn’t take up too much room. There is also bit on the back of the press, to wrap the cord around. This keeps the cord out of the way when being stored.

    I had a fair idea that the Sunbeam Café Style 6-Slice Sandwich Maker Grill & Press
    would be great for toasting sandwiches, but I really wanted to give the grill part a crack. I ended up cooking the Mexican Steak and Capsicum Tortilla Wraps, which was on the Sunbeam website.

    Cooking the steaks on the grill was simple and easy. It felt like having a BBQ in my kitchen. I was able to cook the entire meal on the one appliance. I cooked the steak, capsicum and tortillas on the Sunbeam Café Style 6-Slice Sandwich Maker Grill & Press and was able to adjust the height for each of the different foods.

    There is a pull-out tray at the front of the grill to use when cooking meats, so that it catches excess fats. Clean-up is simple as the plates are non-stick, so a quick wipe and I was done.

    Overall, I really enjoyed using the Sunbeam Café Style 6-Slice Sandwich Maker Grill & Press and loved the fact that is more than just a sandwich press. My family will continue to enjoy using it in the years to come.

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!
