Would it surprise you to learn that I have a cutting board the shape of Colorado?
I know what you’re thinking. You’re thinking… “Everyone has a cutting board the shape of Colorado because Colorado IS A RECTANGLE!” Ok, so would it surprise you to know that you’re wrong!? We are not a perfect rectangle. There is actually a smallish indent along the Southwestern edge of the state. So, now you know.
Annnd now you’re also wondering why I’m giving you a geography lesson, right? It’s because the kind folks at Epicurean sent me one of their State Shape Cutting Boards to try out. Fun, right? Who doesn’t want a cutting board the shape of their state? They’d also make good gifts, I think.
I’ve had mine for a couple months now, and haven’t had any problems with it. I chop and dice on it, and it’s still in great shape. I run it through the dishwasher, same story. Good as new. I’ve spilled wine on it, and it didn’t stain. I even dropped it on the floor once and it didn’t crack or splinter, so it’s all good in my book! It’s easier to clean than the wooden boards I have, yet nicer and much sturdier than my plastic ones from IKEA.
According to their website, these cutting boards are:
- Made of natural slate
- Dishwasher safe
- Eco friendly: Made using materials that leave a low carbon footprint)
- Knife friendly: Will not dull knives by allowing surface to slightly score, protecting knife edge
- Heat resistant: To 350 degrees F/ 176 degrees C, and can be used as a trivet without leaving a blemish, and
- Are made in the USA!

Ooh, I want one! Pennsylvania is the perfect shape for a cutting board! 🙂
Very fun! I’ve admired these cutting boards before. It is so handy that they can go in the dishwasher! My cutting board has to be washed by hand, and that can be a drag sometimes.
