Caring for Your Wooden Goodies


Cutting Boards

All Suffolk Studio boards are finished with food-safe mineral oil and polished with a homemade organic beeswax polish. They should be able to take a fair beating but keep these maintenance tips in mind -

  • Most importantly, keep your board clean and dry when not in use; excess water left on the surface will almost certainly crack it.

  • Re-apply oil frequently. It’ll keep the grain sealed against water and bacteria. It is best to use mineral oil/cutting board conditioner. Then use some Suffolk Studio Shmear on top!

  • If you ever feel it needs a proper cleaning you can mix up a very diluted bleach mixture, wash it, dry it, and reapply oil.


Spoons

Suffolk Studio spoons are designed to be used! Cooking and eating with them will only improve their seasoning and patina. If your spoon is starting to look lackluster, apply some neutral food-safe oil, flaxseed oil is recommended. Suffolk Studio Shmear will also work great!

If your spoon is painted, it may also fade or chip over time. Not to worry! The paint used is all natural and also completely food-safe.
