Taste.com.au has announced Tefal, producers of quality cookware for more than 60 years, as the first partner of Taste Test Kitchen, the site’s destination for everything consumers need to know to discover, buy and master kitchen appliances, gadgets and products launched earlier this year.
The two month integrated campaign will feature Tefal products – the Tefal Easy Fry Grill & Steam and Tefal Ingenio – across multiple touch points including custom content, recipe and product demonstration videos, interactive shoppable videos and curation of contextual galleries designed to increase brand consideration and help consumers make the most out of their appliance purchases.
Product demonstration videos will feature Taste Test Kitchen experts Food Director Michelle Southan and Food Editor Elisa Pietrantonio and be produced in the taste.com.au kitchen. Tefal will also be natively integrated into new video content featuring an airfryer during the campaign period. Campaign content will also be amplified across social channels.
Taste.com.au editor-in-chief Brodee Myers-Cooke said: “At taste.com.au we know how much Aussies love a time-saving device in the kitchen. Australians’ passion for appliances is one of the biggest trends in food we’ve seen in decades. Taste Test Kitchen is at the centre of the action, bringing the know-how, recipes and fun we all need to make the most of these appliances, whatever the dish or occasion.
“We’re delighted to have Tefal on board as Taste Test Kitchen’s first partner. Through our one-stop kitchen destination for appliance know-how and more, we will showcase how Tefal products can make consumers’ everyday lives easier, and deliver high level integration, at scale.”
