Charcuterie Board Gifts for All Occasions

Charcuterie and cheese board gifts are thoughtful presents for housewarmings and other occasions, as charcuterie has become incredibly popular in recent years. To create one, combine a selection of Cabot's award-winning cheeses with meats, artisan crackers and accompaniments like honey, mustard, pickles and nuts. Add our new shoppable cheese accessories & tools with an engraved charcuterie board for a complete presentation. Then, present it all in a DIY gift basket or box.

Let our Ultimate Cheese Pairing Guide inspire you as you select the items for your unique gift. Consider cracker cuts of Cabot Creamery aged cheddar, which come pre-sliced and ready to serve alongside sausage, prosciutto, salami and more.

Cheese Tools & Accessories

You can't fully enjoy fine cheeses without the right tools to slice and spread them, so cheese tools and accessories can make fantastic gifts for cheese lovers.

Wrap up a set of tools by itself or add some to your gift basket or box. Our guide on how to choose cheese tools will teach you the basics about various knives and spreaders, as well as proper cheese storage so you can pick the right ones for your loved one.

Cheese Gift Basket

Putting together your own cheese basket can make your gift extra special, and doing so isn't difficult. Our DIY Holiday Cheese Basket guide will walk you through the process step-by-step, giving you the perfect present for any occasion in no time.
