The glass ceramic panels are non-transparent and have at least one decoration. In order to fulfill the requirements for a glass ceramic panel that provides a cooking surface for a cooking unit in a variety of different pleasing colors, especially a creamy white color shade (BISQUE), in an economical manner, the glass ceramic panel has a predominant crystalline phase of keatite mixed crystals and a full-surface decorative coating that covers at least 80 percent of the upper smooth surface of the glass ceramic substrate. The full-surface decorative coating is provided in a different color from,the glass ceramic panel. Methods for making these glass ceramic panels are described.

The cook top is divided into at least one cold zone and cooking zones heatable by radiant heating elements under the cooking zones. The cook top includes a transparent, colorless glass ceramic or glass plate and a non-ceramic underside layer or layers on the underside of the plate. The upper side of the glass ceramic or glass plate is free of any decoration or layer, thus providing a cooking surface having improved smoothness for easy cleaning. The non-ceramic underside layer is permeable to infrared radiation in the cooking zones and is a color-imparting decoration. The underside layer, at least in cooking zones, has transmission properties for visible light such that the radiant heating elements are not visible from above, at least when they are not in a switched-on state.
