Welcome To Crocks & Pots

Crocks and Pots was developed by Serena Shirley to compliment the sister company Victoriana Nursery Gardens; the original idea behind us was so that you could transform the wonderful food that you have grown in your garden into something amazing to eat in your kitchen!

The equipment that we sell in many cases will be found in commercial kitchens because of its quality where it can handle constant everyday use in the home environment it will last a lifetime or more. We believe that this quality of equipment should also be available for you to use in your own home – believe us when we tell you it does make cooking and ‘creating’ so much easier if you have the right tools for the job!

Many companies will sell ‘professional’ quality equipment or ‘celebrity chef’ endorsed equipment - but how much of it have you ever seen used in restaurants kitchens? There’s a reason for that – in most cases it doesn’t stand the test of time in that sort of environment!

We might be a small family business but are able to send our products to you anywhere within the UK. Always on hand to offer advice, you will see many of the images on the website have been taken in our own kitchen when we have been cooking - so we know that the products are good!

We have tried to make the website easy to use by splitting it into categories of things that we believe you may be wanting to try such as cheese making or preserving; in reality there is so much overlap in cooking and the equipment needed this hasn’t been the easiest of tasks. If you can’t find what you are looking for try ‘Searching The Kitchen’ – or if all else fails Contact Us.

We want to encourage you to enjoy cooking and in turn you to encourage your children to do the same. If we don’t eat we don’t survive - but food should be enjoyed and not be a chore. Our children love to cook and because they cook with us they eat with us and enjoy a wide range of different foods – so many of their friends have tried something new when they have come to play at our house and enjoyed their food so much that they in turn have then encouraged their parents to try something new at home too. Cooking should be fun and eating should be a social event whether it be with your family or your friends and family.
