The latest Kitchen Design Centre cooking Masterclass went off without a hitch this month as visitors to our beautiful Blackburn showroom were treated to a sumptuous selection of goodies, cooked right here in-house!
All of the tasty treats that our professional chefs and home economists cook up during our monthly cooking Masterclass are thought up by the gourmet minds at Neff. Better yet, all of the recipes are written with Neff’s range of compact kitchen appliances in mind .
This month, our talented host, Ann Reynolds used the Neff compact oven and combination microwave, plus the flex induction hob, to cook up more food than we thought possible! On the menu were mushroom paté with cheese on toast, sausages with a honey and mustard glaze, asparagus and leek frittata, oat and raisin cookies, chocolate brownies (recipe below!), plus scones, an apricot cake and a raspberry roulade.
Little wonder, then, that the event was attended by an enthusiastic crowd of cooking fans, all of whom got to sample the results of Ann’s labours at the end of the afternoon.
Our Neff cooking Masterclasses are more than just a brilliant chance to get up-close-and-personal with our cutting-edge kitchen appliances: everyone who attends a Masterclass gets entered into a prize draw for the chance to win a selection of Neff induction pans, worth £125.
Our latest cooking Masterclass was held in our gorgeously appointed Blackburn showroom, located off the Brownhill Roundabout and within easy reach of anywhere in the North West.
When it comes to designer kitchens, the lovely folks in the North West are in luck – we’ve got two more stunning showrooms right here in the region: one in Housing Units, Failsworth, Manchester and another on Regent Street, Colne.
So, no matter where you are in the North West, there’s a Kitchen Design Centre near you!

The kitchen details that make everyday life feel a little easier 🙌🏼
We positioned the dishwasher right beside the drawers where we keep our plates, bowls and cutlery, and honestly… it’s made unloading so much quicker!
It might seem like a small detail when planning your kitchen, but getting the layout right can make such a difference to how your kitchen works day to day.
One to remember if you’re planning a kitchen 👀

STUNNING TRANSFORMATION
Our clients chose Kitchen Design Centre because they wanted a dedicated expert to lead the way, rather than a mere supplier of parts
They required a team to guide them from the first spark of an idea to the final finishing touches.
The brief presented a unique challenge – transforming a blank-canvas garage into a space that celebrated the charm of a traditional barn conversion. The room, featuring expansive wooden beams, demanded a thoughtful design.
More than just a kitchen, the clients required a family-oriented living hub with a dining area tailored for entertaining.
Working with Simon, the Manager at our Barrowford showroom, provided total peace of mind. He spent time listening and meticulously exploring various layouts until the vision felt just right.
The result is a traditionally-styled kitchen filled with modern gadgets. The breathtaking Dark Blue Shaker cabinetry serves as a bold anchor, paired with light-toned units to accentuate the warmth of the timber beams and flooring.
