Whether you’re looking to design a walk-in pantry or a smaller pull-out larder, your kitchen designer can help you decide how to fit out your dedicated floor to ceiling space with shelving and cupboards to help you store like with like, and cut down on visual clutter.

What’s the difference between a larder cupboard and pantry?

Today, the terms ‘larder’ and ‘pantry’ are used interchangeably because, after all, they both store food. But there are some differences that we’ll outline below.

A larder cupboard is typically a built-in cupboard or cabinet in the kitchen that’s easy to reach and ideal for storing dry goods, long-life food and drink. It’s a key consideration when deciding on storage solutions for your kitchen design, which is particularly beneficial for those who have a small kitchen. Larders can also be freestanding too, but is often always contained in one cupboard.

‘The larder has become a must-have piece in the kitchen, and it makes perfect sense,’ says Leisha Norman, kitchen designer at Harvey Jones. ‘The great advantage of a larder and its storage capacity is that a kitchen no longer needs to be full of wall cupboards. It frees up entire walls to either be left free or have an attractive piece of artwork, which in turn helps to make it feel less like a kitchen and instead more of a relaxed environment, perfect for open plan living areas.’

For centuries, homes have relied on a dedicated kitchen pantry to store dried goods, pots, pans and jars of produce. Pantries are larger, often held in a small or separate room or a closet. Today’s walk-in pantry is highly covetable and requires having more space – this dedicated ‘room within a room’ is perfect if you have a large household.

‘The pantry has a rich and varied history in the home, and I am delighted to see it making a comeback with the ability to be personalised to suit the needs of today’s busy families,’ says Julia Steadman, commercial director at Brandt Design. ‘The advantages of having a walk-in pantry include the ability to keep your store cupboard essentials away from the main work area, which frees up more space for dining, relaxing and more appliances to make life easier.’

Additionally, the breakfast pantry (or ‘bi-folding pantry‘ as it is also known) has been a growing trend in 2023. It’s typically a built-in cupboard and so much smaller than a walk-in pantry but the interior space is still expansive, allowing for small appliances like a toaster and kettle, cookbooks, cereal, plus tea and coffee.
