Abstract
An induction cooker includes a top plate on which a cooking container is placed; a heating coil placed below the top plate and that heats the cooking container; an infrared sensor placed below the heating coil and that detects infrared radiation emitted from the cooking container; a sensor casing that houses the infrared sensor; and a magnetic path forming member placed on a top face of the sensor casing. The magnetic path forming member guides magnetic flux passing above the infrared sensor by being generated from the heating coil.
