Introducing the new toastley colours: Modern shades for modern kitchens

Choosing a kitchen appliance today is about more than performance alone. Design, colour and the ability to complement a home’s aesthetic are now just as important. As more households invest in contemporary interiors, demand for appliances that match this modern style has grown steadily. In response, Toastley is introducing new colourways for its bestselling touchscreen toasters: Oat Cream and Matt Black for the 2-slice model, and a striking Matt Black version for the 4-slice toaster.

These new finishes combine the same precision technology Toastley is known for—touchscreen controls, even-heat distribution, digital countdown timers and stainless-steel durability—with colours that reflect today’s design preferences. Recent consumer surveys show that more than 55% of shoppers prefer neutral or matte finishes for their kitchen appliances, making these additions both timely and practical.


Why colour matters in modern kitchen design

The kitchen has become one of the most curated spaces in the home. With the rise of minimalist interiors, open-plan layouts and soft-toned décor, appliances are expected to blend seamlessly rather than distract from the overall theme. Colour plays a critical role in that experience.

Neutral shades such as cream, matte black and grey are increasingly popular because they:

  • complement a wider range of counter and cabinet styles

  • feel less intrusive in compact kitchens

  • match with popular materials such as quartz, stone and wood

  • give a contemporary, timeless impression

Introducing new colours allows Toastley to meet these design trends without compromising on the core performance features customers already value.


The new oat cream finish for the 2-slice toaster

The new oat cream shade brings a soft, elegant tone that suits both modern and traditional kitchens. It is designed for people who enjoy warm, natural palettes and subtle accent colours.

Key benefits of the oat cream finish

  • blends easily with light wood, stone or warm-toned countertops

  • adds a touch of sophistication without feeling too bold

  • provides a cleaner, brighter look for smaller spaces

  • appeals to households looking for harmony between appliances

The oat cream version maintains all the standard Toastley features, including digital shade selection, touchscreen operation, a countdown timer and precision heating.


The new matt black finish for both models

Matt black has become one of the most desirable appliance finishes globally. According to home design reports, searches for matt black kitchen products have increased by more than 40% in the past two years.

Toastley’s matt black finish offers a modern, premium look with a subtle, non-reflective surface that is both sleek and understated. It is now available in:

  • 2-slice touchscreen toaster (matt black)

  • 4-slice touchscreen toaster (matt black)

Why matt black stands out

  • complements industrial, luxury and minimalist kitchen themes

  • hides fingerprints and marks more effectively than gloss finishes

  • pairs effortlessly with stainless steel and chrome fixtures

  • visually matches dark appliances such as kettles, coffee machines and ovens

For customers wanting a coordinated kitchen set, the matt black range delivers a cohesive, premium appearance.


Designed to match the performance inside

While the new colours add aesthetic appeal, each model still includes Toastley’s core performance advantages:

  • precise 6-level browning control

  • touchscreen interface with clear icons

  • digital countdown timer

  • wider slots for sourdough and artisan bread

  • quick reheat and defrost functions

  • even-heat technology for consistent results

  • dual controls on the 4-slice model

The updated colours enhance the experience without altering the engineering.


Ideal for gifting and kitchen upgrades

With the new colours launching ahead of peak shopping seasons, they also make thoughtful gifts. Customers increasingly choose stylish appliances for:

  • housewarming presents

  • weddings and engagement gifts

  • Christmas and holiday gifting

  • first-home kitchen setups

  • aesthetic kitchen upgrades

Neutral, stylish shades help ensure the appliance fits seamlessly into almost any kitchen.


Conclusion: style meets performance with toastley’s new colour range

The launch of oat cream and matt black for the 2-slice toaster—and matt black for the 4-slice model—marks a new chapter for Toastley. These options combine modern design with reliable everyday performance, giving customers a choice that suits both their lifestyle and their kitchen’s aesthetic.

For households looking to refresh their décor or upgrade to a smarter, more consistent toaster, the new colours offer a perfect balance of form and function.
