Now, here are some tips for a perfect charcuterie board.

Chocolate Pretzels

Instead of staring off savory or sweet, let’s do both. Long pretzel sticks drizzled in white or dark chocolate are the perfect combination for you and a loved one. A personal favorite is dark covered chocolate pretzels with a white drizzle along the side. 

Fresh Fruit 

Every charcuterie board needs balance. With so many snacks make sure to have a palette cleanser with some fresh berries. I personally prefer blueberries, cherries, strawberries, and raspberries. If you want to think outside the box put in a few slices of clementines or oranges! 

Cranberry Cheese

This cheese pairs nicely with almost anything. It has a subtle sweet taste of berry to it that makes it divine with every bite. You can pick up this cheese at almost any grocery store and it can even come in family-sized portions!

Walnuts

So far a lot of my suggestions have been sweet, so to add a little salt to the mix you can throw in some nuts around the board! They make for a great decoration around the charcuterie board as well. It’s a simple touch a lot of people like.  

Salami 

No Charcuterie board is complete without some deli meat. A popular option is taking salami and folding it in half around the side of the board. You can substitute salami for different meat if you have a preference for anything else like pepperoni.

Greek Yogurt 

By adding a small bowl as a centerpiece, you can fill it with greek yogurt and a dash of honey. Some people use it as a dipping sauce while other people put some granola in it and just serve it as is!

Crackers

Another staple to any charcuterie board! There’s a lot of room to be creative with this, so what kind of crackers do you like? You can go simple and do regular crackers or spice things up with seasoned ones.
