Cutting Boards
Beautiful, unique, durable, handcrafted Australian made cutting boards made from Camphor Laurel.
Which is better? Wood or plastic.
Wood has some advantages over plastic in that it is somewhat self healing; shallow cuts in the wood will close up on their own. Camphor Laurel wood also has natural anti-septic properties.
What is the best type of wooden cutting board?
A solid slab timber cutting board. No joins. Hardwoods with tightly grained wood and small pores are best for wooden cutting boards. Good hardness and tight grain helps reduce scoring of the cutting surface and absorption of liquid and dirt into the surface. Red oak for example, even though a hardwood, has large pores so it retains dirt, even after washing, making it a poor choice for cutting board material.
Camphor Laurel's tight grains and natural coloration make it a highly attractive cutting board material, both for aesthetic and durability purposes. The natural oils in this tropical hardwood allow it to repel moisture, warping and microbes.
Will the camphor laurel smell get into my food?
The secret is in the kiln drying – the kiln drying removes the natural oils from the camphor timber leaving a slight aroma in the board. The board remains smelling beautiful without leaving any scent in your food.
Beautiful, unique, durable, handcrafted Australian made cutting boards made from Camphor Laurel - tested to be naturally and permanently anti bacterial timber (hygienic for all food). The perfect addition to any kitchen. Environmentally friendly made from Camphor Laurel Trees (Not an Australian Native Australia recommends removal and replacement with natives)
