Flexibility with serving boards for an attractive presentation

In the catering industry, flexibility is the key to success. Whether it's private parties, corporate events, or large wedding receptions – every event has its own unique requirements, and the right equipment can make all the difference. Our high-quality serving and cutting boards are not only functional kitchen aids, they also add a special visual touch. In this article, you'll learn how to optimally use the boards, which sizes and shapes are suitable for different purposes, how to get the most out of their presentation, and what advantages they offer specifically for caterers.

The right choice: Which board for which purpose?

Our serving boards are available in different sizes and shapes, each of which is particularly suitable for specific tasks:

  • Large, rectangular boards are ideal for buffets and larger gatherings. They accommodate a variety of foods—from cheese and charcuterie boards to antipasti and finger foods. Their size allows for impressive presentations on these boards that will impress guests, contributing to a particularly appealing presentation.
  • Smaller, round, or oval boards are ideal for individual portions or as a stylish base for snacks and side dishes. These boards are perfect for cheese or charcuterie boards, which can be placed on tables for convenient access for guests.
  • Cutting boards in handy sizes are practical for preparing and serving smaller portions right at the table. These boards can also be used as personalized serving platters for individual guests—a creative touch that makes the catering experience even more personalized.
  • The right equipment: sizes and shapes for every application

    When choosing the right boards, it's worth paying attention to versatile features. Here are some considerations to keep in mind when choosing your boards:

  • Shape and material: Rustic wooden boards with natural grain offer a warm and inviting look that suits almost any event. Round or oval boards add an interesting shape and are versatile.
  • Size: Large boards are ideal for presenting extensive food arrangements or buffets. Smaller boards, on the other hand, look particularly charming when used as personalized serving platters—ideal for creative, personalized menus.
  • Wooden serving board with compartments and metal handles for attractive presentation.

    The art of presentation: How serving boards become eye-catchers

    To make serving boards a real eye-catcher, both the arrangement of the food and some decorative elements play an important role:

  • Layering and colors: An appealing presentation can be achieved by combining different textures and colors on the board. Dark bread next to light cheese, fresh herbs next to dried fruit – this creates an interesting visual appeal.
  • Create height and dimension: Place small glasses for dips or small bowls of olives and nuts on the board. This creates different levels, which is especially visually appealing on large buffets.
  • Decorative elements: Fresh herb sprigs such as rosemary or thyme, edible flowers or even small fairy lights around the boards are great eye-catchers that stylishly round off the overall picture and visually enhance the presentation.
  • Sustainability and longevity

    More and more caterers and customers are placing value on sustainability. Our serving boards are made from durable, eco-friendly materials that, with proper care, will remain usable for many years. Simple tips like regularly oiling the boards help extend their lifespan. This way, you're not only investing in an attractive presentation but also in a sustainable choice that saves costs in the long run.

    Flexibility for different event types

    Serving boards adapt effortlessly to a variety of event types. Whether it's a wedding, corporate party, BBQ, or theme night – these boards can be customized for any occasion and create a special atmosphere. They're quickly becoming an indispensable all-rounder for caterers looking to bring flexibility and style to their event planning.

    Individual touch: Personalization options

    Another plus point is the ability to personalize serving boards for events. Engraving or branding—for example, the caterer's or client's logo—gives the boards a special, personalized touch. This makes every event unique, and guests will fondly remember the special atmosphere.
