This personalized charcuterie board makes the perfect gift.
These days, charcuterie boards are not just loaded with fancy meats. Hosts are making charcuterie-style platers with everything from deli meats and cheeses to candy and sweet treats and pretty much anything else you can think of serving on a tray.
With an infinite number of ways to serve up charcuterie, it is essential to have a charcuterie board that is just as unique as what is piled on top.
Personalization options
When it comes to choosing a personalized board, there are a lot of custom options to consider. Some things to think about to guide your choices include: what will you serve on it? How many people are you hosting? Do you plan to use it as a cutting board as well? Will it be for fruits and veggies? Meat? Bread?
Size
If you are planning to host large gatherings and serve lavish displays, a larger, sturdier board will be ideal. This14” by 18” board will provide plenty of serving real estate and the custom engraved edge will be on display even when it’s loaded up with goodies. This large board by Words with Boards is uniquely made with a slope to catch juices and is designed to be reversible. The flip side is flat making it ideal for cutting as well as serving.

Shape
There is no need to limit yourself to a rectangular or square board! Round boards can be the perfect option for the center of a table. This round cutting board was featured in Oprah’s Favorite Things Holiday List and is the perfect personalized gift for any celebration.

Type of wood
The wonderful thing about hardwood cutting boards is that every board is a unique piece of art. Words with Boards offers a choice of maple, cherry, or walnut for nearly all of their pieces.
Maple wood is light in color with a yellow undertone that makes it feel bright and sunny. Cherry wood is a medium shade with a redder tint. Its warm and welcoming color can add dimension to a tablescape or countertop display. Walnut is the darkest of the three kinds of wood with a rich brown hue. If you are looking for a bit of drama, it is the color for you. All three wood options make for a beautiful personalized charcuterie board.
Engravings, carvings, and inlays
When it comes to personalization, the small details, and personalized lettering can take your board to the next level. Words with Boards uses stunning, real crushed stone to create their inlay designs and combines carved lettering with laser engraving.
Inlays
The Words with Boards stone collection features three new boards to choose from. This small stone inlay board is perfect for serving two or three people and can be personalized with a beautiful initial. You can choose from Turquoise, Malachite, or Lapis for the inlay.
Personalized words
Creating a personalized charcuterie board with a family name, first names, or meaningful words can make a cutting board even more unique. Words with Boards customizes boards with one-of-a-kind hand-cut lettering and engraving options.
The hand-cut letters are created using a scroll saw and the placement along the edge of the board makes them visible even when the board is full of delicious snacks.
