The Ivory Coast international's deal was set to expire at the end of the season but Chelsea have moved to tie the striker down on a longer contract.
Kalou, who reached the World Cup finals with the Ivory Coast when they drew 1-1 with Malawi at the weekend, now joins Didier Drogba, Ashley Cole and John Terry in pledging his future to the Blues.
"I am very pleased that Salomon has signed a new contract with us as he is an important player for this club," Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti said.
"He is always well motivated and works hard at his game at all times. Because of this, I am sure that Salomon will become an even more important player for Chelsea in the future."
Leaders Chelsea travel to Aston Villa for their next Barclays Premier League match on Saturday.
