Slate trending for Cheese Boards

Slate Trending For Cheese Boards

There seems to always be a new and ingenious trend around the next corner in food service and presentation. Some are works of beauty and style, while others fall flat. Some of these recent food presentation trends include serving breads and appetizers in slippers and hats, and serving your entre on a slab of driftwood. Great culinary minds never cease to be inspired by the world around us. Using slate slabs for decorative cheese plates is no exception. Some of these trends have more lasting power than others. The idea to use slate platters as decorative cheese boards has many advantages.

Slate has a Unique Beauty

Personalized slate has a dark color, and it can be glossy when sealed properly. You can use that to gift it to your loved ones as well. These aspects of slate cheese boards, highlighting their dark and reflective nature, tend to contrast well with light opaque cheeses and create a more vibrant plate. The importance of creating an appetizing plate for a dinner party cannot be understated. Guests will feast on your offerings with their eyes before any morsel gets near their mouths. Slate platters come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes as well. Because there is so many choices and such differentiation among the platters, your dinner party is likely to have a unique cheese board as its centerpiece. When shopping for a slate cheese board to add to your collection, you will come across many interesting choices.

 

Slate has an Unexpected Strength

A thin and unassuming slab of slate can make a decidedly strong platter for your decorative cheeseboard. This stone is extraordinarily strong, and so a person can get away with using a thin piece as their serving platter. Unlike some ceramic and porcelain platters that can become very hefty. Slate has an inherent strength that makes it easy to cut thin and light slabs to use as serving platters. Slate is also a very easy material to seal and clean. Often when a scratch or blemish occurs, the board just needs to be drizzled with olive oil and then wiped clean. These platters can be scrubbed, and baked, and used as a cutting board, and still make an appearance as an attractive cheese board at your next party. This also means that you will be able to hold more rare cheeses on your slate cheese board without making it too heavy to carry around comfortably.

Personalized slate cheese boards can be written on like a chalkboard. This allows the server to reuse a single slate cheese board on many different occasions while still informing guests of the specific offerings. Highlight your fanciest cheeses with stars or arrows, or write the names of each exotic cheese on your slate cheese board so that everyone will be aware of their choices. The reusability of this feature is unique to slate, and you will not be able to do things like this on other stone platters or wooden cheese boards. Experience the unique joy of owning your own slate cheese board.
