  • Andes mints (8-10 pieces)

Optional

Instructions

  1. Place the Brie: Add the wheel of Brie cheese to the center of a cookie sheet or large wooden tray to serve as the centerpiece of your charcuterie board.
  2. Drizzle and Decorate Brie: Drizzle the Brie with honey and sprinkle a few blackberries and raspberries on top to enhance flavor and presentation.
  3. Arrange Bakery Items: Place the mini croissants, donut holes, and strawberries in the outer corners of the tray for balance and visual appeal.
  4. Add Meats and Cheeses: Fill in the tray with salami, honey ham, cheese cubes, and cheese slices. For an attractive touch, create salami roses or fold salami slices in quarters and neatly arrange them.
  5. Fill Gaps and Garnish: Fill any empty spaces on the board with chocolate hearts, chocolate-covered raisins, Andes mints, and optionally fresh flowers to create a full, festive look.

Notes

  • To make salami roses, roll each slice tightly and fan out the edge to resemble a flower.
  • Use fresh, in-season fruits for the best flavor and appearance.
  • Choose a large enough tray or board so all ingredients have space without overcrowding.
  • For a dairy-free or vegan version, substitute cheeses with plant-based options and omit honey or use a vegan sweetener.
  • Keep the charcuterie board refrigerated until just before serving to maintain freshness.
