The Art of Charcuterie: Elevating Events with Handcrafted Boards


This past weekend, I had the honor of being commissioned to create a stunning charcuterie spread for a political fundraiser in Carlsbad, California. It was an evening filled with elegance, conversation, and of course—exceptional food. But what truly set this display apart wasn’t just the variety of flavors; it was the foundation on which they were presented—my handcrafted, live-edge Geppetta charcuterie boards.


A Charcuterie Experience Like No Other


Charcuterie is more than just arranging meats, cheeses, and accompaniments—it’s an art form, and every great masterpiece needs the right canvas. My handcrafted, organic, food-safe wooden boards are designed to complement any setting, adding warmth, texture, and authenticity to every display.


For this event, I created a show-stopping spread that included:


✅ Prosciutto-wrapped shrimp – the perfect balance of salty, savory, and fresh

✅ Homemade meatballs on Parmesan crisps – a crowd-pleasing bite with bold Italian flavors

✅ Italian sausage on rustic crackers with roasted peppers – a nod to tradition with a gourmet twist

✅ An artisan charcuterie board – featuring the finest Soppressata, Mortadella, and premium salamis

✅ A world-class cheese selection – paired with spicy jellies for a bold flavor contrast

✅ A vibrant fruit board – featuring dragon fruit, fresh berries, and citrus for a pop of color and freshness

✅ A vegetable board bursting with color – including purple cauliflower, red carrots, and crisp, fresh produce


Each board was carefully arranged to enhance both the visual appeal and the dining experience, creating a grazing table that became a centerpiece of the event.


The Perfect Board for Any Occasion


Whether you’re hosting a fundraiser, wedding, private gathering, or corporate event, a Geppetta Board provides the perfect foundation for a luxurious charcuterie experience. Every board is handcrafted with heirloom-quality wood, 100% organic, toxin-free, and food-safe, ensuring that your presentation is as stunning as it is functional.
