Our Story

Toasted Maple Custom Wooden Goods started in 2018 when we decided to take a chance on our dream of running a small business. Our goal was to build a company that connected businesses and individuals in fun and unique ways. Rather than entering the over-crowded digital world, we wanted to set ourselves apart by creating opportunities for meaningful face-to-face interaction. Thus came the idea of designing and producing custom wooden tokens. With wooden tokens, businesses could add a much-missed human element to their small business marketing efforts and customer interactions. Since launching with the laser engraved wooden coins, Toasted Maple has grown and now offers a variety of unique wooden goods including magnets, coasters, ornaments, and signs - all custom branded for you! One of our biggest joys is helping businesses find unique ways to advertise their business and creating custom products that leave a lasting impression with customers. We love a creative challenge and look forward to the many unique projects to come.
