Why Orana Camphor Laurel Boards Are Perfect for the Australian Autumn and Winter
As the weather cools down across Australia, our kitchens become the heart of the home. From cozy family dinners to hearty Sunday roasts, cooler seasons call for comfort food — and that starts with the right tools.
Here’s why Orana’s Camphor Laurel cutting boards are your ultimate autumn and winter kitchen companion.
1. Built for Heavy Use During Cooking Season
Autumn and winter are peak cooking seasons — soups, stews, roast veggies, and slow-cooked meats are back on the menu. Our handcrafted end grain and edge grain boards are made to handle heavy-duty prep work without warping, cracking, or slipping.
Whether you're chopping root vegetables or carving a roast, Orana boards deliver the stability and strength your cold-weather recipes demand.
2. Naturally Antibacterial – No Extra Hassle
In cooler months, kitchens can become breeding grounds for bacteria, especially with more indoor cooking and closed windows. Camphor Laurel naturally resists bacteria and mold without chemical treatment.
No need for harsh cleaning chemicals — just rinse, dry, and you're good to go.
3. Warm, Natural Aesthetic That Suits the Season
Orana boards bring a cozy, natural look into your kitchen. The warm grain patterns and rich honey tones of Camphor Laurel perfectly match the mood of the season — earthy, calming, and timeless.
It’s not just a cutting board — it’s a statement piece that elevates your kitchen space.
4. Sustainably Made for Slow Living
Autumn and winter are a time to slow down. Every Orana board is made in Australia from sustainably harvested Camphor Laurel, supporting eco-conscious production and local craftsmanship.
Investing in high-quality, slow-made kitchenware reflects the seasonal mindset — intentional, durable, and made to last.
Bonus Tip: Use It as a Winter Serving Board
Hosting wine and cheese nights by the fire? Orana boards aren’t just for chopping — their beautiful finish makes them ideal for serving bread, charcuterie, or desserts.
Warm up your table with an elegant, natural base that draws attention to every dish.
