Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Begin by placing your sharp or smoked cheddar and wine soaked cheese in the center of your serving board, creating an inviting display. Position the red Leicester and goat Gouda nearby, filling in spaces with Spanish chorizo, salami, and prosciutto.
  2. Next, surround the central cheeses and meats with an assortment of fresh fruits like green apples and purple grapes. Scatter a variety of crackers around the board.
  3. In a small bowl, place the pub cheese and set it on the board alongside mini pretzels for dipping, close to the meat selections.
  4. Add extras that bring festive flair to your board! Use small bowls to hold pumpkin seeds, dried fruits, and Halloween candy. Disperse the pimento olives and okra snacks around the board.
  5. For the finishing touches, consider adding thematic décor such as small Halloween figures or sprigs of herbs. Place any needed utensils around the board.
  6. Once your Halloween Cheese Board is complete, place it on a central table and remind guests to dig in and enjoy the offerings.
