This charcuterie bar for my friend’s baby shower, turned out amazing. I literally was in tears after I put out the decorations and didn’t even put the food down yet. It just overtake me. It was just so beautiful with the greenery’s and the different pink flowers. And she absolutely loved it.
I never thought to do a charcuterie board theme for different events. I’ve always just done a regular charcuterie board for holidays but I never got holiday specific items to put on it and decorate around it. And I think this is going to be my new thing I was thinking it be adorable to do a Christmas one with different pine, granaries and poinsettias around. Also, you could do a Halloween charcuterie with candies and different things to go with it and then put spooky things like cobwebs and spiders around that be super cool too.
So the different things that I put on were oranges, kiwis, cut in half, strawberries, raspberries, blackberries, and blueberries. I also like to use red and green grapes, but keep them on the vine. And then I like to cut off a little bit of the red and green grapes on the vine to put in with like your meats and cheeses. Just add a little depth. I usually don’t use bananas because they’ll go brown fast or apples. And I don’t use pineapple too much because it has so much juice in it that I’m afraid that the juices going to other things and make a mushy. I also decided to use dried fruit this time that went really really well.
For the dry ingredients I really like to use the Pepperidge farms cookies because they’re just so decorative and so unique compared to normal cookies. And I used pretzels filled with peanut butter, the thin pretzels for dip, different kinds, and shapes of crackers. The sociable crackers are nice because they’re different shapes and flavors. And then I use like to use a little bagel chips and triangle chips just to give it a little different look.
For my meats, I like to use pepperoni and salami to make the flowers that Izzy did. And I also like to use different kinds of lunch meat and roll them up or sausages and cut them thin. This time I used beef sticks and just cut them into Threes and laid them out just for a little different look.
For the cheeses I like to use a soft cream cheese and put a flavored jam over it. I also use pepper jack, sharp cheese, Gouda, Colby, Jack, and Swiss cheese. I’ll get the wheels and put those in the center cut them into wedges, and then people can take each piece with their cracker and meat. And I also use two different kinds of hummus and kept them in the containers and just camouflage them by putting different crackers around the edges.
Another good idea to maybe do a dip themed Charcuterie bar, were you can make a buffalo dip, fruit dip, dill dip, and then do different kinds of crackers and chips.
I also like to add different kinds of chocolates, not chocolate bars, but specially chocolates like dove, Ghirardelli, and Lent. I like to use the different shapes and then I do unwrap them so people don’t have to worry about the wrappers or the wrappers won’t be sitting on other food.
You can make it your own and add whatever you’d like. Oh, I also forgot I like to add different kinds of green and black olives. It be cool to to use the stuffed green and black olives just for some different flavors and four different sizes.
