Laminated Beech Cheese Board 35x23cm – Presentation and Storage

This laminated beech board measures 35 x 23 cm and combines two uses: a presentation stand for serving cheeses at the table, and a storage shelf to integrate into WoodUp larder units. Made from laminated beech, it benefits from superior dimensional stability compared to solid beech and a perfectly flat surface. Its ergonomic handle makes it easy to handle.

Beech is a taste-neutral wood with no scent of its own, commonly used in kitchen utensils and food-contact applications. It can be lightly oiled with a food-grade oil to enhance surface protection and make cleaning easier.

Usage tips

For table presentation, arrange the cheeses from mildest to strongest in the order of tasting — from fresh cheeses at the top left to blue-veined cheeses at the bottom right. Add a few dried fruits, nuts or grapes to complete the board.

For integration into the larder unit, the board slides onto the shelf of the medium or large model. It insulates the cheeses from the raw wood of the larder unit and makes cleaning easier — simply remove the board and wipe it down.

Care

Wipe with a damp cloth after each use. For fatty cheese stains or rind marks, rub with half a lemon, then rinse lightly and dry immediately. Do not immerse in water or put in the dishwasher. Apply a light coat of food-grade oil (linseed, sunflower) once or twice a year to keep the beech hydrated.

WoodUp Tip

To regularly maintain your cheese board, prepare a simple mixture: 1 part coconut or food-grade linseed oil + 1 part melted beeswax. Apply warm to the wood, leave to penetrate for 10 minutes, wipe off the excess. This natural treatment lasts several months and gives the beech a very pleasant slightly satin finish.

Good to know before buying: laminated beech may darken slightly with use through contact with fatty cheeses — this is normal and has no impact on hygiene. Regular oiling limits this darkening.
