The Breville Smart Oven has earned its counter space in countless kitchens. While this versatile appliance can handle everything from toast to roasted vegetables, we've discovered some under-the-radar items that can enhance its capabilities. These complementary tools – from sustainable basics to artisanal pieces – might just become your new kitchen favorites.

Waxed Paper: Because Regular Wax Paper is So Last Century

We're intrigued by how If You Care has reimagined such a basic kitchen staple. Their waxed paper trades traditional paraffin for carnauba wax, sourced from Brazilian palm trees. The result? A completely compostable alternative that works just as effectively for lining baking sheets or wrapping up leftovers.
The devil's in the details with this one – the paper maintains its non-stick properties even at higher temperatures, and there's no chemical aftertaste to worry about. Even the packaging shows thoughtful design, using unbleached recycled cardboard. It's a small change that can make a big difference in reducing kitchen waste.

Why we like If You Care

  • 1

    Sustainable Materials

    Uses natural carnauba wax instead of petroleum-based paraffin

  • 2

    Zero Waste

  • 3

    Temperature Resistant

Over-the-Sink Drying Rack: The Space-Saving Solution You Never Knew You Needed

This isn't your typical dish rack. GIR (Get It Right) has created a clever solution for cramped counter spaces with their silicone-coated marvel. The rack features three distinct drying zones and a removable caddy, perfect for handling the aftermath of a Breville baking session.
The silicone coating does more than just look pretty – it prevents scratches on your precious cookware while keeping everything firmly in place. Strategic drainage holes ensure water goes where it should (in the sink, not on your counter), and the whole unit can be collapsed for storage when not in use.

Serving Friends: When Your Utensils Need Personality

Areaware's wooden serving utensils bring a touch of whimsy to the kitchen without sacrificing functionality. These pieces showcase how everyday tools can transcend their utilitarian roots through clever design.
The collection includes spoons, spatulas, and serving implements, each with its own distinctive character details carved into the handles. They're crafted from solid wood, making them safe for use with non-stick bakeware, and their shapes are actually quite practical for serving everything from lasagna to roasted brussels sprouts.

Sisal Placemats: Where Form Meets Function on Your Table

Year & Day's take on the humble placemat elevates the dining experience through thoughtful material selection and design. These coiled sisal creations provide an interesting textural element to your table setting while serving a practical purpose.
The natural fiber construction creates an organic look that works equally well for casual weeknight dinners or more formal occasions. Beyond their aesthetic appeal, these mats provide reliable heat protection for your table from dishes fresh out of the Breville.

Tapas Set: Small Plates with Big Environmental Impact

The team at Bamboozle Home has created a four-piece bamboo set that manages to be both eco-friendly and genuinely useful. These vessels work particularly well for serving small bites and appetizers prepared in your Smart Oven.
The set's construction reflects careful consideration of both form and function. The natural bamboo material helps maintain food temperature while being surprisingly durable. When these pieces eventually reach the end of their lifecycle, they'll break down naturally – no microplastics here.

No.4 Cast Iron Skillet: Beauty Marks Don't Affect Performance

We're particularly excited about Field Company's factory seconds program. These skillets have minor cosmetic imperfections that in no way impact their cooking performance – think of them as character marks that save you money.
The No.4 skillet stands out for its lighter weight compared to traditional cast iron, making it easier to transfer between stovetop and Smart Oven. The smooth cooking surface is a throwback to vintage cast iron manufacturing techniques, creating a naturally non-stick surface that only improves with use.

2QT Saucepan: Italian Engineering Meets Modern Cooking

Sardel's compact saucepan reflects generations of Italian metalworking expertise. The 2-quart size proves particularly useful for smaller households or when preparing accompaniments to dishes cooking in your Breville.
The pan's five-ply construction ensures even heat distribution, while the ergonomic handle design keeps your hands safe during transfers. It's particularly well-suited for recipes that start on the stovetop and finish in the oven, thanks to its heat-safe construction.
