7 celebrity chefs with cookware collections at QVC — Martha Stewart, Rachael Ray and more
It seems like there's a celebrity collaboration for everything these days, some downright genius and others, well, perhaps slightly more questionable. But if you ask us, some of the absolute best celebrity collections come from chefs, foodies and cookbook authors. After all, it makes sense that folks who build their careers cooking, eating and thinking about food would know a thing or two about designing kitchenware that a person who likes to cook will actually want to own. And one of our favorite places to scope out new and exciting celebrity cookware collections is QVC.
From fall fashion to anti-aging skin care, QVC is a one-stop destination for most everyday essentials. But the brand's collaborations with chefs and foodies might be some of its most covetable collections year after year. Some, you might be familiar with (ever heard of a little-known woman by the name of Martha Stewart?), but others might surprise you. Did you know, for example, that Ayesha Curry — wife of Golden State Warriors NBA star Stephen Curry — has a downright delightful kitchenware line at QVC?
It got us thinking: Which other celebrity foodies have brilliant cookware lines at QVC? Turns out, quite a few, and not just from names you might expect. Plus, with the holidays around the corner, these collections might just be what you're looking to gift the foodie on your holiday shopping list.
1. Martha Stewart
Here's a woman who needs no introduction: Martha Stewart has built a name for herself in the home and hospitality space over decades thanks to her renowned taste and talents. While she's recently become something of an influencer in other areas — like her seemingly anti-aging skin care routine and her infamous friendship with Snoop Dogg — she'll always be among the crème de la crème of celebrity foodies. In her latest Martha by Martha Stewart collection at QVC, she's dishing out kitchen essentials that aren't just practical, but that you won't feel inclined to hide away in a kitchen drawer. From eye-catching mixing bowls to a vintage-inspired cake stand, there's a lot to love about Martha's QVC lineup.
2. Aarti Sequeira
Aarti Sequeira is a well-known cooking show host and cookbook author who's brought her colorful style and bold personality to her signature line of cookware at QVC — she's also the winner of Food Network Star's season 6. Inspired by her unique twists on international dishes and her extensive expertise in flavors and spices, it's easy to see why the Indian American cook is known as the "Spice Queen." With her QVC collection, you'll be able to create robust, flavorful dishes in your own kitchen using tools like a stylish pressure cooker and slow cooker and this 2-in-1 stoneware baking dish (it has a lid that doubles as a serving platter).
3. Ayesha Curry
Ayesha Curry's husband (ahem, Stephen Curry) might be one of the biggest names in the NBA, but she's made quite the name for herself off the court and in the kitchen. Her love of food and flavor began early on — she even had a cooking-themed birthday party as a young teenager. Now a restaurateur, chef, New York Times bestselling cookbook author, Food Network host and founder of the lifestyle brand Sweet July, Curry's lifelong expertise shines in her QVC collection. In fact, shoppers particularly love her stylish and practical bacon grease can. "This little can is almost the best thing I have ordered!" wrote one recent reviewer.
4. Carla Hall
Carla Hall formerly worked as an accountant and a model, but it's her appearance on both the fifth and eighth seasons of Top Chef — and her time as cohost on the talk show The Chew — that first introduced audiences to her philosophy: Cook with love and live with joy. Now, she's encouraging home chefs everywhere to make their kitchens their happy place through her love of food, flavors and fun. Her collection at QVC includes mini bread loaf tins (perfect for making pumpkin bread as holiday gifts) and a heated spreading knife that makes butter straight out of the fridge spread like margarine.
5. Meredith Laurence
Meredith Laurence — also known as The Blue Jean Chef — is a bestselling author and chef whose passion is making people as comfortable in the kitchen as they are in their blue jeans. She began her career after graduating from the New England Culinary Institute as a baker and caterer, and has since turned her passion into a 25-year-long career inspiring others to get comfortable with cooking. You'll find lots of kitchen staples in her small (but mighty!) collection at QVC, including a cast iron combo cooker that comes with a 3-quart saucepan and a 10-inch skillet as its lid. Use the two together to create a nifty Dutch oven!
6. Fabio Viviani
A well-known chef, restaurateur and cookbook author, Fabio Viviani has made a name for himself by bringing his heritage and unique passion for food and flavor to the culinary world. Viviani's QVC collection, which includes genius staples like mixing bowls with suctioned bases and glass containers with an air pump for marinating flavorful meat, is designed to make entertaining fast and easy so you can get mouth-watering food on the table in almost no time at all.
7. Rachael Ray
Rachael Ray's career as a cook, Food Network star, businesswoman and author kicked off in 2006 with her show by the same name (it ran until May 2023). These days, you'll find her whipping up tastier and faster meals on her new show Rachael Ray's Meals in Minutes. It shouldn't come as a surprise that her latest QVC collection is designed to make cooking faster and more fun, with tools like this stainless steel multi-grater that has silicone hand grips and this kitchenware "garbage bowl" that you can use for all of those unwanted scraps of food.
