Amazon’s Secret Storefront for Hosting Essentials Is Packed With Deals Up to 62% Off Ahead of July Fourth

Now that entertaining season is finally here, I’ll make any excuse to gather friends and family around a table filled with great food. Over my many years of hosting, I’ve amassed a collection of party essentials that include dinnerware sets, serving plates, and more. However, that doesn’t mean I can’t add more to my curation, especially when Amazon has a hidden storefront dedicated to summer hosting essentials. I couldn't help but comb through to gather my favorite deals, from these fancy drinking glasses to this versatile electric griddle. Best thing is, they all happen to be under $50.

Malacasa Casserole Dishes

My favorite cookout foods are the side dishes. From bright corn salads to layered dips, I love them all. These Malacasa casserole dishes are especially perfect for lasagnas, vegetable roasts, pasta bakes, and more. The set comes with four baking dishes ranging from .8-quart capacity to 3-quart capacity. The deep handles make them easy to hold onto during transport and they’re elegant enough to go straight from oven to tabletop. They’re 30% off for a limited time, so act fast.

Nook Theory 4-Pack Bamboo Fiber Dinner Plates

I purchased multiple sets of reusable bamboo plates when I first started hosting and that turned out to be one of my best investments. The bamboo plates I got have lasted through years of parties (and dishwasher cycles). These Nook Theory bamboo plates are perfect for hosting, especially if you’re a cookout enthusiast and the thought of guests standing around with your fancy dinnerware makes you nervous. The bamboo plates are shatterproof, dishwasher-safe, and lightweight. They also come in several fun patterns, and at only $17 for a four-pack, it’s worth grabbing a few sets if you like to host larger crowds.

Combler Ribbed Glasses, Set of 4

These Combler ribbed glasses have summer written all over them. Perfect for refreshing frozen drinks or fizzy cocktails, the glasses are stackable so you can easily store them when they’re not in use. The fluted exterior lends a whimsical flair to drinks, with customers calling these glasses “so fancy” and “a perfect buy.”

Bloomingville Acacia Wood Salad Servers

While any pair of kitchen tongs can get the job done, there’s a particular elegance that comes with using wooden salad servers to serve your greens. These Bloomingville Acacia wood salad servers bring warmth to the table, and at seven inches long by four inches wide, they’re big enough to grab healthy portions of salad. Best yet, they’re a whopping 33% off.

Yirilan 2.2-Liter Glass Pitcher

As a collector of drink pitchers, I don’t think anyone can have too many pitchers. Especially for parties, you may want several different drinks for guests to choose from. This Yirilan glass pitcher has a striking geometric design that will make any drink feel more sophisticated. In addition to a mixing spoon and brush, the pitcher comes with a perforated lid to filter any pulp or drink add-ins like berries or cucumbers. Grab one (or two) for just $15 each with an additional 10% coupon.

Ruvanti Cloth Napkins, Set of 12

I love that cloth napkins add a touch of elegance to my parties. These Ruvanti cloth napkins come in several festive patterns, and at $10 for a 12-pack, they’re just 83 cents each. They’re made of a durable polycotton that’s lightweight and wrinkle resistant, so they’ll be ready for the next party after a quick cycle in the washer and dryer. Shoppers love that they instantly upgrade dining experiences, with one shopper sharing that “they combine style and practicality perfectly.”

Bella Electric Griddle

As a child, I spent many family parties watching my mom sear shrimp for summer rolls on an electric griddle that’s still one of her favorite appliances. Electric griddles excel at making speedy work of cooking for a group, be it pancakes or burger patties. The Bella electric griddle has a 10-inch by 16-inch cooking surface that’s nonstick, scratch-resistant, and quick to heat. With over 16,000 five-star ratings, this griddle even has a convenient drip tray to keep crumbs and oils contained for easy cleanup. One customer calls it “effortless cooking for a crowd,” and at just $22, it’s a steal.

Zeppoli Classic Dish Towels, Pack of 15

No one wants to say it but after every party comes the cleanup. Thankfully, one of our favorite sets of dish towels is 20% off. At about $1 apiece, these flour sack towels are 100% cotton, making them super absorbent and capable of sopping up any mess you (or your guests) create. Plus, you can use them to quickly maneuver hot pots and pans, so you can spend less time in the kitchen and more time enjoying the party with your guests.
