Abby B. When it comes to designing custom cutting boards, there isn’t a lot of options for you to explore. Regardless, it’s important to know of the few types of cutting boards you can customized – and the different ways it is customizable.

13 Best Print On Demand Cutting Board Fulfillments
1. Printify
One of the most popular white label POD sites to sell with is Printify. People love it because it’s super easy to use even for beginners, products are cheaper than most and there’s a wide variety of things (over 800!) to sell.
Glass cutting boards require more care but it is more sanitary than plastic or wooden ones. I would use them for cutting breads, fruits and vegetables!
If you’re a complete beginner in POD, I recommend going with Printify so you can sell a handful of different products in your store and learn what works best faster.
Here’s a sample of a Printify cutting board I created using a design downloaded from Creative Fabrica. I searched for a seamless fruit pattern design as you can make it repeat all over the product using Printify’s pattern tool.
Makes a nice gift for watermelon lovers and for the summer!
2. Gooten
Products on Gooten are quite similar to what you’ll find on Printify – but there’s lesser variety. If you’re planning to sell other kitchen accessories aside from just cutting boards, they’re an excellent fulfillment to work with.
You might think that it’s easy to design cutting boards as the product is pretty straightforward. But if you’re a true graphic designer or you’re hiring a professional designer to make designs for you, you’ll need design templates to work with. Gooten provides these in the format of PSD and JPG for each individual product!
I generally would recommend Gooten to experienced POD sellers as they require users to provide information on their existing store when signing up.
Types of cutting boards you can design:

3. Prodigi
Want to work with a print on demand UK-based company that offers wholesale prices? Prodigi is one you should check out! Most of their products are manufactured in the UK but you’ll find that some items are printed in the US.
Unlike Printify and Gooten, Prodigi also carries circular or round glass cutting boards that are much nicer for presentation (when you have guests). It can be quite hard to store given the odd shape but it’s still a fun accessory to display in the kitchen.
If you’re new to print on demand, you might feel unsure about the product quality your customers are going to get. It’s nice to know that Prodigi is one of the few sites that lets you get mini sample products. Although the pack contains mostly paper products, it’s still a way to know of their printing quality!

4. Zazzle
Don’t want to be setting up your own website or ecommerce store? You can sell on a print on demand marketplace instead and just focus on making good designs. This is what I would suggest to artists and new side hustlers!
Zazzle is one of the best marketplaces to work with if you want to offer personalization on your designed products. Most platforms have a limited catalog and does not allow customers to personalize their purchase – to include names, initials or numbers.
Some products can also be personalized by uploading a picture – at no extra cost to the customer! There are few types of cutting boards you can design (list below) and you can offer them in a few color options.
Here’s a sample of a cutting board I personalized on Zazzle to include my name. There are nine color options and you can easily switch between the different cutting board sizes – and the design should adapt to it!
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Paddle glass cutting boards
- Rectangle glass cutting boards
- Square glass cutting boards
- Round glass cutting boards

5. Society6
Another print on demand marketplace you can explore to sell custom designed cutting boards is Society6. They’re known for their wide range of POD furniture, which includes coffee tables, stools and office things!
There are two options for cutting boards on the site – you can choose between a rectangle or a round one. The design will be printed on one side (smooth satin finish) that’s not meant to be cut on, you will need to cut on the wooden side as it’s finished with food grade cutting board oil.
Like most marketplaces, customers can’t personalize their orders on Society6 so this makes Zazzle a preferrable platform. However, designs on Society6 may appeal to a different target market I believe e.g. those who love retro designs, vintage and hippy themes.
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Rectangle bamboo cutting boards
- Round bamboo cutting boards

6. CafePress
CafePress is just another platform artists and newbies can sell their designs on – without setting up a separate ecommerce store. The major downside is that they only accept artists from 26 countries (link below) and ships to the same countries.
If you make the cut, you can get your designs printed on wooden cutting boards with CafePress, like the ones in the image below. Their prices are quite comparable to Society6’s!
Designs are directly printed on the boards so I don’t think it will last very long especially if you’re using it on a daily basis and for non-dried items. Just like Society6, you should cut on the blank side (without design) as the main printed side is meant for display.
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Bamboo cutting boards

7. Printed Mint
If you’ve noticed, Printed Mint is one of the suppliers for cutting boards on Printify. The great thing is you can source the same products directly on their website to sell with Etsy or Shopify (often, at a cheaper price) – not all fulfillments on Printify can do this!
This of course comes with a few disadvantages. Firstly, you won’t have the access to a wide range of fulfillments or products so you’re only limited to what Printed Mint has to offer. Secondly, you can only sell via Etsy or Shopify as Printed Mint does not offer any other integrations.
If your business fits well with these, you should try them out. You’ll definitely love Printed Mint’s custom packaging feature as you can customize product labels, colors of crinkle paper (that goes into a box) and ribbon styles. These are amazing add-ons for cutting boards if meant for gifting!
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Tempered glass rectangle cutting boards
| Other kitchen products you can design | Coasters Mugs |
| Available integrations | Etsy Shopify |

8. Contrado
Looking for cutting boards made of stone that will last you much longer? Contrado is one of the few sites that offers them!
Prices are generally on the higher side with Contrado but they’re known for great printing and product quality. Some items like their custom rugs come with multi-year printing guarantees so you know you’re in good hands!
It’s no surprise that Contrado’s stonemax chopping board also comes with a two year printing guarantee. They’re made of non-porous antibacterial surface and is heat resistant (up to 248°F). Your design will be printed on the one side covering all edges, giving it a 3D look and you can add a custom logo or message to print on the back.
A great idea for a gift!
Need it fast? Contrado typically ships orders in 1-2 days and you can pay extra for express shipping within the USA (delivered in 1-2 days post manufacturing).
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Stonemax rectangle chopping boards
- Glass rectangle chopping boards
| Other kitchen products you can design | Tea towels Trays Plates Placemats Coasters Aprons Tea caddy Oven gloves Serving dish Pot holder Magnets Kitchen rugs Plates Bowls Bibs Table cloths Table runners Mugs |
| Available integrations | Shopify |
| Free to use? | FREE |
| Based in | UK |
| Ships to | Worldwide |
9. Bags Of Love
Based in the UK and want to work with a local fulfillment? Bags Of Love is for you. They’re another brand under Contrado group that fulfills all orders from their HQ in London.
Prices are quite similar to what you’ll find on Contrado but on BOL, they’re listed as GBP (British Pounds). Generally, you can expect the same kind of products and quality from BOL as what Contrado offers – this includes option for stonemax or glass chopping boards.
If you’re wondering if there’s anything unique BOL has to offer, it’s the feature to design collage chopping boards. BOL has ready photo collage templates for you to use on any kind of product – which is not available on Contrado. They make nice gifts for loved ones and you only need to add photos on your part.
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Collage glass rectangle chopping boards
- Stonemax rectangle chopping boards (S, M, L)
| Other kitchen products you can design | Tea towels Trays Plates Placemats Coasters Aprons Tea caddy Oven gloves Serving dish Pot holder Magnets Kitchen rugs Plates Bowls Bibs Table cloths Table runners Mugs Glasses Tumblers |

10. Teelaunch
Interested in selling wooden cutting boards but want a greater variety? You should head to Teelaunch, a print on demand fulfillment based in the USA.
There are three shapes of wooden cutting boards you can design on the site – paddle, oval or rectangle. The paddle and oval boards come in two sizes and two color options (maple or walnut), while the rectangle cutting board comes in three sizes and a single color.
The great thing about using Teelaunch is their cutting boards are laser engraved with your designs instead of being printed on. Their maple boards are also much more durable and can last you years as they’re made of real maple wood.
As a home chef myself, I prefer larger boards as they’re more suitable for cutting vegetables and meat. Smaller ones are best for breads and fruits!
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Hardwood paddle cutting boards
- Hardwood oval cutting boards
- Maple cutting boards
| Other kitchen products you can design | Oven mitts Platters Plates Bowls Mugs Tumblers Water bottles |
| Available integrations | Etsy Shopify WooCommerce BigCommerce API |

| Ships to | Worldwide (excluding these countries) |

11. JetPrint
If you’re looking for an affordable alternative to all the above, JetPrint is a good option. Since they ship orders from Asia, product prices are much lower than others – but you’ll need to pay more for shipping and orders would take longer to arrive (to USA or Europe).
When designing glass cutting boards, it’s best to make your design colors vibrant and darker so it will appear vivid on the final product. Making your designs in a lighter color will make it more transparent when printed!
JetPrint only offers a single type of round tempered glass cutting boards. The site is better known for their wide range of print on demand footwear. If you’ve not decided on selling kitchen accessories, you can still change your decision!
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Tempered glass cutting boards (round)
| Other kitchen products you can design | Mugs Water bottles Tumblers |
| Available integrations | Shopify Etsy WooCommerce |

12. AOP+
Prefer glass cutting boards but want something in a different shape than the usual round or rectangle? AOP+ offers them in a water-droplet shape, which comes with a small hole for hanging when unused.
Designs are sublimated to the product so you won’t be able to feel them when printed. This makes the design slightly more durable and not prone to fading over time.
AOP+ is not on my preferred list of fulfillments as I don’t find their website easy to use. But it is still well-known in the POD market and there are a good range of products you can explore especially for apparels.
Types of cutting boards you can design:
- Glass chopping boards (oval)
| Other kitchen products you can design | Mugs Aprons Coasters |
| Available integrations | BigCommerce Shopify Etsy |

| Based in | UK |
| Ships to | Worldwide |
13. HelloPrint
Planning a corporate gift purchase and want to order custom chopping boards in large quantities? HelloPrint is a great option if you’re based in the UK or Europe.
The print area for their bamboo chopping boards is only 6cm x 3cm as they engrave your design on the bottom right corner of the board. It won’t be a direct alternative to what you see on Teelaunch but any kind of engraving is still quite special.
You can upload your designs before or after purchase and receive your orders in less than two weeks (depending on delivery address). There are bulk discounts for you to enjoy (see sample image) and ordering at least 60 units would get you about 46% off per unit pricing!
