This Baking Paper Hides Black Friday Deals… Until You Put It in the Oven

In a sea of identical Black Friday deals, Kitchen Warehouse has decided to add some much-needed flavor. Partnering with Special Australia, the brand is reinventing the way discounts are delivered by turning a humble kitchen staple into a small moment of magic.

Instead of shouting yet another “up to 70% off,” Kitchen Warehouse is inviting home cooks to discover their offer, right where they feel most at home: in the oven.

Starting November 10, every online order and in-store visit comes with branded sheets of baking paper pre-printed with Black Friday promotions. But the real surprise happens only when the paper goes into a hot oven. Using heat-sensitive ink, part of the design fades away during baking, revealing even bigger discounts hidden beneath.

A simple, everyday action becomes a reveal, the customer doesn’t just receive the promotion; they uncover it themselves.

It’s a playful twist in a category notoriously saturated with the same numbers and the same graphics.

At a time when every retailer is communicating the same message, Kitchen Warehouse creates a small ritual that stands out by being human, tactile, and fun. Baking paper becomes a storytelling device, a moment of curiosity, and a reminder that creativity doesn’t always need a screen to land.

The activation is rolling out across Australia with creators, in-store demos, and kilometers of the customized paper included in shipments, turning Black Friday into something closer to a kitchen experiment than a discount frenzy.

And beyond the gimmick, it reinforces what Kitchen Warehouse is really about: a brand built for people who love cooking, tinkering, trying, failing, and succeeding. By transforming a simple household task into a warm, domestic brand experience, the company makes its biggest sales moment feel personal again.

A small, clever idea, and proof that even in the most mechanical retail moment of the year, creativity still wins.
