Our Story
Luxe Boards was created from a simple belief: food should be beautiful, memorable, and crafted with intention. What began as a passion project rooted in a love of elegant entertaining has evolved into Pittsburgh’s premium charcuterie and grazing brand; where artistry, sustainability, and exceptional flavor come together.
Founded by Kate Ryan, an MBA-trained operations and innovation leader, Luxe Boards blends refined aesthetics with thoughtfully sourced ingredients to elevate the everyday. Every board is designed as a visual experience: ribboned meats, artisan cheeses, vibrant produce, and small-batch accompaniments arranged with care and delivered with the ease of a boutique service.
At Luxe Boards, we believe luxury should still feel personal, which is why our boards are handcrafted to suit every occasion. From intimate gatherings to corporate events, celebratory milestones to curated gifts, each board is crafted to impress and made to savor.
Our Owner
I am Kate Ryan, MBA and owner of Luxe Boards. This business began as a creative passion project where I could blend my love of refined presentation with my background in strategy and design. When I am not crafting boards, you can usually find me reading, spending time with my husband, or enjoying quiet moments with our pups. Luxe Boards has become a space where my personal interests and my creative work come together, allowing me to create elevated and thoughtful boards that bring people together in a special way.
Our Mission
Luxe Boards is a charcuterie board business that provides carefully crafted and luxurious ingredients to complement any occasion. We offer a range of sizes, from personal bites and boards to grazing tables, and can accommodate any allergy or lifestyle, providing setup and pairings as needed.
