What Makes It Uncommon

Nonna's pie crust gives you instant potluck cred and keeps a family tradition going strong. Preserve those special recipes on something sturdier and more beautiful than an index card. This display- and heirloom-worthy cutting board showcases the ingredients and instructions for one meaningful dish.

  • Submit a scanned image of your recipe card, and the exact directions are etched in your loved one's handwriting.
  • If you don't have the card, you can enter a typed recipe and it'll be etched in a lovely script that feels handwritten.
  • Choose maple or cherry wood.
  • Please read this Dos & Don't Tip Sheet prior to scanning your recipe card. We want it to be engraved on the board to the very best quality!
  • Made in Vermont.

Perfect!

This was absolutely perfect! My mom wrote out a fresh copy of our family recipe and it was exactly her writing. It was a Christmas gift and everyone loved it! It arrived in the time promised. I would definitely consider ordering this again as a gift! #sweepstakes


Very satisfied

Ordered this as part of a Christmas gift. The final product turned out very nice. The recipe was previously written on a piece of paper well over 30+ years old, and was very light and faded. It was transferred to the board very clearly. Definitely recommend if you're interested in buying one.


Make Sure You Read The Suggestions

We ordered one from a hand written page but the engraving is so light that you can't see it from 5 feet away. Pay attention to what they are requesting and make sure your lines are thick/dark enough.


Becareful Of The Source You Send

We sent a handwritten recipe on 81/2 x 11 paper and what we got back was so faint that you would think it was a plain cutting board from 10 feet. Quality looks good just make sure your recipes handwriting is big enough.


Happy Customer :D

I recently ordered this for my mom to preserve, showcase and have passed down, something very meaningful to the family. And, wow, beautifully done! Excellent craftsmanship, attention to detail and handmade feel just add to the uniqueness of the recipe itself. Thank you!


Had to be done 2x but the new one still had an error

Very beautiful board and the etching was pretty but the title of the recipe of my board (the family name) was incorrect so we had to get another one. I ended up gifting this 3 weeks late and the replacement also had a typo on it in the body. Its pretty, just bummed as the text I provided did not have any of these issues.

Response from merchant

Thank you for posting, we're so sorry to hear that the replacement also had an error. We know you've already gifted it but if you'd like to share some photos or even more details, we'd be happy to look into this further. We've passed this onto our team and emailed you privately.


A Special Way to Commemorate a Family Recipe

Surprising my family with this commemorative recipe cutting board brought my father and brother to tears. They remarked being so appreciative of this gift that brought the handwriting and specific instructions for the perfect lasagna as noted on a recipe card by my mother who had recently passed. The cutting board is beautifully crafted and imprints the recipe well onto the cutting board. The board is so visually stunning and striking and well crafted that my family has it prominently displayed in their kitchen so that a little bit of Mom is always there to support to support our culinary adventures. This is a great gift that I highly recommend for any occasion.


For the cook in your life

Food is love. Find out the recipe that they are most proud of and do this-do this right now. Get two: one for them to display and one to use. Sweepstakes #133


Perfect!

Could not be better. Can't wait to finally give it to my friend this week. It's her Mom's recipe is from a booklet - stained and bound by yarn! - she gave me many, many years ago.


It did not disappoint!

The recipe board was a gift and a BIG HIT with the recipient!! She knew right away that it was our Mom's handwriting and it brought happy tears to her eyes. Thanks so much!

Does it have to be a recipe? I have card game rules that I would like to have engraved.

Verified reply from Maxienne

As long as it fits the scanned image guidelines, any text will work.


When you say "engraved" do you mean cut into the wood or printed on top of the wood?

Verified reply from Itamar

These boards are engraved in a physical process. Not printed images


Can I order 4 boards of the same recipe?

Verified reply from Jasmine

Hello. Yes you can!


Hello. Is it possible to engrave an image instead of text? Specifically the outline of a state with a heart indicating the location of a wedding?

Verified reply from Michael

I'm sorry, The artist is unable to accommodate this request.


Can I submit a copy of a recipe that was typed on a typewriter, and keep it in that layout instead of having you change it to a script font?

Verified reply from Allison

Yes! Take a photo or scan it to upload it when ordering the 'scanned recipe board' option.


Should I make my scan the size that I want etched onto the board or do you guys custom fit it to fill out the board best?

Verified reply from Cassandre

The artist will custom fit the scanned recipe on the board for the best outcome.


I have a recipe that has a large flower on the card. I'm assuming that couldn't be etched, but could you just block out the flower and etch the recipe??

Verified reply from Leslie

Hello! Whatever is on the card will be etched; if you don't want the flower to show make sure it's not on the scan. Here are some tips for getting the best scan: https://www.uncommongoods.com/pdf/personalizedfamilyrecipeboard.pdf


For the cutting board engraved with a recipe, is it text only or are design elements allowed? Thank you!

Verified reply from Amy

Hi Alison! It is pretty much text only. As you can see in the customer photos, lines and asterisks and small markings in handwriting are fine (like ones you'd see on a keyboard), but no major design elements.


My recipe card has writing on both sides of the card. Is this ok? How will this turn out on the board?

Verified reply from Leslie

Hello! You can scan both sides of the card and if possible it will be sized so it fits on one side. The board itself cannot be engraved on both sides. If you have any other questions, fee free to contact us at help@uncommongoods.com.


Can 2 different recipes be engraved on the front and the back? Will the script be preserved after multiple washings ?

Verified reply from Allison

The recipe can only be etched on one side. We recommend washing with warm soapy water, rinse thoroughly, and towel dry. Let it stand upright, never flat, to dry.
