Or option 4 - change your requirements so that the community cookbook fits.Wrapper cookbook are created with chef-edit (chef-rewind) or there are other ways ?
The main reason for considering this is that cookbooks don't stand alone, but
rather depend on each other. If you throw out one community cookbook, that
may later prevent you from using a dozen other community cookbooks, too.
Especially if the cookbook in question is a very basic one, say the apache
cookbook, creating your own will mean that you'll have to recreate quite a
few other cookbooks.
There also is option 5. If the original cookbook does part of what you need,
you may be able to create a wrapper cookbook that calls the community
cookbook and then adds your specific features.
