If, like me, you were heartbroken to hear that Le Creuset was discontinuing the popular Meringue colorway, you’ll soon forgive them wholeheartedly. Le Creuset has officially launched its final color of the year—Nuit—and this deep, velvety blue is shaping up to be my favorite shade yet.
Le Creuset says: “Nuit is an intense and striking shade inspired by the mystery of the night. Like a moonlit ocean, the luxurious, velvety color swirls from black to deep blue.”
Complementing the deep blue hue, Le Creuset’s Nuit collection is the first to feature a chrome knob. Each cast iron pot is finished with a sturdy, round handle – not only practical, but also reminiscent of a silver moon in the midnight sky.
I’ve already put the mini cocottes on my Christmas list (I know it’s a bit early, but I’m dreaming of serving delicious desserts at a New Year’s Eve dinner party). Here’s our guide to the new Le Creuset colors, including all the models our kitchen team has tested and approved (some are even already on Le Creuset sale).

FAQ
Is Le Creuset worth it?
Even at full price, Le Creuset is worth the money. Sure, the initial cost is high, but these kitchen tools quickly become heirlooms. Le Creuset offers at least a ten-year warranty on all of its products, some even longer, so when you calculate cost per use, it makes sense to invest in quality over quantity.
