How to Make The Perfect Charcuterie Board

There is no question that charcuterie boards are in right now and have no plan on going out of style anytime soon. Not only are they trendy but they are also extremely versatile, you can use them for almost any occasion as a gift or appetizer! That being said, let’s make the perfect charcuterie board!

First you want to start with a super cute wooden board to put everything on. Pick your size depending on the size of the crown intend on feeding. You can get creative with the shape and color you chose. If your party has a theme, get a board that goes with it! Go to a local store or Etsy to find a cute board if you do not have one at home or just go in your pantry and use what you have, it’s all up to you.

The next thing you want to do (the fun part) is pick out everything you want to serve! Traditionally charcuterie boards are filled with different types of cheese, crackers, grapes, and meats. You can never go wrong with meats and cheeses but you do not only have to do that. If you are hosting a younger crowd you could fill your charcuterie board with different kinds of dessert such as chocolate covered strawberries and pretzels. Your charcuterie board is your oyster, get as creative as you want with it!
