Personalized cutting boards and charcuterie boards account for much of Cook’s Creations’ work described by customers. An October 2026 buyer commissioned a walnut board with brass handles and custom engraving as a gift for their parents. September customers praised both a finished cutting board and the font and personalization choices available for a wedding gift. Customers identify Ramsey Cook as the owner of the West Hartford business. Google reports a 5-star average from 28 ratings, and BBB gives it an A+. People repeatedly praise communication, detailed woodwork and help developing custom designs. One August 2026 customer said Ramsey replied the day they messaged about an engagement gift and had the engraved board ready the next day. Another August buyer said two boards came with conditioner and written care instructions. There is also custom work fitted to the home. In March 2025, a customer described a cutting board made to fit over a sink, with Ramsay visiting several times to measure and check the fit. Another customer that month credited Ramsey Cook with making a corner butcher-block countertop that blended several woods and fitted a custom space. An April 2025 buyer described a custom lazy Susan used daily. The company advertises free estimates. Its website also offers a free three-ounce container of board conditioner with board orders of $80 or more.
I had a custom walnut charcuterie board made as a gift for my parents, and it turned out absolutely gorgeous! Ramsey did a wonderful job bringing my idea to life, including the brass handles and personalized engraving. He was so kind and thoughtful throughout the process, and the finished board looks even better than I imagined!
I’m so happy with this cutting board! It arrived in perfect condition and I’ve been using it regularly ever since. The quality is fantastic, it feels really sturdy and well-made, and I’m really happy with my purchase. Ramsay was also great to work with and was very helpful in answering all of my questions. I really appreciate the great product and excellent customer service. Thank you so much!
We couldn’t be happier, with this handcrafted beautiful Cutting Board ❤️ When a dear friend was getting married, three of us wanted to get her and her-soon-to-be husband something truly special— Preferably something meaningful and locally made. Since they both love to cook, A personalized Cutting Board was the PERFECT gift! Ramsey was wonderful to work with from start to finish. He returned our calls, gave us plenty of options for fonts and personalization that we knew we were creating something uniquely theirs. And the finished product? STUNNING! If you are looking for a handcrafted, personalized gift, we can’t recommend Ramsey more. This was a gift we were proud to give — and the couple loved it!❤️
I love my foraging honeybee cutting board! Not only is the wood beautiful, the design is perfect! As a beekeeper, the etching truly captures the cuteness of the honeybee and is very detailed. This would be the perfect gift for any nature lover!
I had the pleasure to buy two beautiful cutting boards from Ramsey. Unquestionable craftsmanship. Not only did he cut me a good deal for the boards together, but it also came with polishing conditioner and a written-out care guide! I would recommend him to anyone looking for custom woodwork.
