Formal Charcuterie Boards

Our formal charcuterie board is an enhanced version of our disposable charcuterie board and is sure to impress! It includes the same foods as the disposable option using our wooden boards, elevated stands, glass bowls, and serving utensils to provide a more elaborate, upscaled presentation.

These boards feature a delicious assortment of meats, cheeses, fruits, veggies, crackers, and dips—artfully arranged on brown parchment paper. This isn’t your typical spread of small bites!

With the formal option, the set up includes stainless steel tongs for serving, spoons for the various dips, and cheese knives for cheese logs along with our serving ware. The only items you will need to provide for your guests are plates, napkins, and forks.

Want the formal look but the disposable pricing? We can incorporate your serving ware into the board for an elegant look. Check out our disposable charcuterie boards page if so!

You can personalize your cheese board to match your theme and style. We strive to make every board we create align with the client’s vision. Throughout the years we have incorporated a variety of decor and sweet treats! Think custom sugar cookies, mini pies, and cupcakes for your event. One of the highlights of our business is seeing our client’s reactions to our charcuterie board creations that are tailored to their design.

No charcuterie board is ever alike as every board is suited to our client’s needs. From savory to sweet, every board is a mix of small bites made to impress. Our boards range from weddings, large corporate events to those wanting to have a smaller birthday party gathering!
