Le Creuset’s unexpected picnic collection is guaranteed to be your summer go-to — and it’s surprisingly affordable

When I first think of Le Creuset, I picture an attractive cast-iron pan, and an expensive one at that. The company is known as a premium brand for cast-iron cookware, and its products aren’t within everyone’s grasp.

But think again. Le Creuset’s On-the-Go Collection is a whole lot more affordable, and it could just take your summer picnic to another level. What’s more, Le Creuset has introduced four new stainless steel products to the lineup, which are all beautifully designed, super packable and built to last.

Although launched in the U.K. in 2024, the On-the-Go Collection has only just landed in the U.S. The food jar, lunch box, travel mug and water bottle are all available in four iconic colors: Deep Teal, Cerise, Licorice, and Shell Pink. But what makes the Collection even more attractive is that everything is under $50.

Whether you’re planning a summer picnic or you’re looking for reliable lunch box containers to take to the office, Le Creuset’s On the Go Collection makes an attractive proposition.
