Emerio Asian fondue & grill
A few years ago, it suddenly became a huge craze: hot pot. Xenos is still keeping the trend alive with this Asian fondue & grill. As the name suggests, the appliance has both a fondue and a grill function. You can switch them on separately. Ideal if you’re more in a fondue mood today, or would rather use the grill. The fondue & grill is suitable for 6 people. Handy: it comes with a recipe for Chinese fondue broth. And we also have a delicious hot pot recipe for you!
You can bring home the Emerio Asian fondue & grill for € 79.99. That’s hardly anything for all those hot pot evenings, right?
Old-school popcorn machine
You can turn life itself into a Grease-movie. The first tool you need for that? This old-school American popcorn machine with a retro fifties look. It gives you a bowl of popcorn within 2 minutes. The machine uses hot air, so you don’t need to add any grease—uh, oil. So you’re being healthy too. I see no reason not to run to Xenos right now. Xenos popcorn machine, you’re the one that I want.
For € 34.99, the popcorn machine is yours. Let’s get it poppin’!
Bright pink cotton candy machine
In addition to a popcorn machine, Xenos also has a cotton-candy-pink cotton candy machine. So if you want, you can organize a fair at home. Or serve your guests a rather unusual snack during an easy going movie night. You get 30 sticks with the machine. That makes it easy to supply the whole street with cotton candy. Good to know: Xenos also carries cotton candy sugar. After all, no sugar means no candy floss.
The Xenos cotton candy machine costs € 34.99.
Perforated pizza pan
Is there a real pizza baker hiding inside you? With this perforated pizza pan, you’ll take your pizza-baking skills to the next level. The holes in the pan ensure that your oven’s heat is distributed evenly across your pizza. The result: a deliciously crispy base and crust every time. As if you’d teleported your pizza from Naples.
The perforated pizza pan costs € 6.99 and is only available online from Xenos.
Colander for the sink
This is a gadget that makes you think: why hasn’t this been part of my life all along?! Draining food isn’t as easy as it seems. If you put your colander in the sink and pour your cooked food into it, the water drains away slowly. And a colander in one hand and a pan in the other? That’s just asking for trouble. This colander for the sink is the perfect solution. It hangs on the edges of your sink. That way, the water drains away quickly and both hands are free for your pan. Trust me, this is going to be the kitchen find of the year.
You can bring home this colander for € 12.99.
Coffee stencils
With these coffee stencils, you can make your guests believe you’re a true barista. The kind with bizarre latte art skills. Okay, these stencils don’t create real latte art… But they do make really fun shapes on your milk foam. So it’s sort of latte art after all. There are 4 different shapes in one set, so you can let your creativity run wild.
This set of coffee stencils costs €3.49.
Wine rack with glass holder
A sturdy wine rack is essential for wine lovers. Usually, the glasses are kept in a separate china cabinet, but not with this wine rack with a glass holder. It’s like having your own wine bar at home.
So how much does a wine rack with a glass holder cost? Normally € 59.99, but as we speak it’s reduced by 30%. That means you can get it now for € 41.99. Run to Xenos, now!
Egg timer
If there’s one thing I simply can’t remember, it’s how long to boil eggs. The search query “how long should I boil a medium-boiled egg?” is a permanent fixture in my Google search history. This egg timer puts an end to my ignorance. You turn the timer to your egg’s desired level of doneness and that’s it. When the alarm goes off, you’ll have a perfect egg in front of you. And all for just € 2.49!
Frying basket (for serving)
Once, in a distant past, I hosted a 21st-birthday dinner. A dinner with friends to celebrate turning 21. These frying baskets from Xenos were already a huge hit back then. No, you don’t put them in the deep fryer. They’re purely intended for serving your fries. This is a typical example of a fun little extra.
You can bring home this incredibly cute frying basket for € 2.99.
Colorful tagine
A tagine is indispensable in Moroccan cuisine. You can easily make delicious dishes in it, such as chicken tagine with cauliflower. This Xenos tagine is super affordable, works well and is simply beautiful. So beautiful that you’ll actually want to give it a prominent spot on your countertop. It has a diameter of 27 centimeters, so you can make nice big portions in it.
This beautiful tagine is yours for just € 26.99.
