'THE BUFFET' SLATE CHEESE BOARD

'The Buffet' slate cheeseboard, or plate, makes a great centre-piece for your buffet, having room for a huge range of cheeses, decorated with tiny bunches of grapes, ready-to-eat dried apricots and halves of walnuts.

Alternatively use it as a slate serving plate for those wonderfully easy to make but dramatic looking rectangular puff-pastry tarts (savoury or sweet) So easy to cut. and serve with no awkward rim to get in the way.

Or display small pop-in-the-mouth desserts,  individual pavlovas, mini-iced cup cakes, individual mille-feuille on it as a slate cake plate.

Standing on 8mm high domed rubber feet, this 40cm x 30cm slate cheese board plate is easier to pick-up as it stands proud of the table, elegant and with its beautifully crafted, olive-oil conditioned, food-safe surface, it is a delight to use.

Nothing sets of the colours of cheeses as well as the dark yet patterned surface that slate offers, and at annmade we use a type slate that has not only the surface variations but also a degree of banding and mineral lines that add character to the slate.

Can be written on with chalk to identify cheeses displayed.
Surface can be washed with mild detergent and hand-hot water, and surface sheen may be restored by lightly oiling with warm olive oil.
