Cuisinart

Combining his passion for food with an engineering degree from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Carl Sontheimer founded the home appliance brand Cuisinart in 1971. After developing and championing the invention of the electric food processor and bringing it to American households with the support of celebrity chefs, Cuisinart started to revolutionise food preparation. Extending its culinary expertise over the following decades with grinders, coffeemakers and toasters, alongside successful cookbooks and videos, the award-winning homeware label is now renowned for its range of high-quality, stainless-steel kitchen equipment. Continuing to strive for the promotion of culinary education, the brand provides recipes and tips alongside its food makers, grills, microwaves, rice cookers and crockery collections.
