Festive Halloween charcuterie board
Charcuterie Boards are all the rage for entertaining these days. They range from simple boards with just a few treats to elaborate spreads featuring huge assortments of meats, cheeses, nuts and spreads.
You can customize them in so many ways to tailor them not only to your event but your own families’ tastes as well. I love this kids Halloween charcuterie board because the adults can enjoy it too!
Why I love this easy Halloween charcuterie board
Charcuterie Boards provide a lot of options, and people love options. They’re a great conversation starter at a party as well, and they provide a focal point for people to gather and get to know one another!
I loved assembling this Grazing Table for a Blogger’s Luncheon I hosted. It was a charcuterie board on steroids and so much fun to choose ingredients and to assemble. It was a terrific crowd pleaser!
How to assemble your fun Halloween charcuterie board
When creating your board, gather items that flow with your theme. I always purchase more than I think I need so I can fill in any necessary holes.
When picking out items for your festive Halloween charcuterie board, think about shape, color, and texture. Combining those three things will help make your Halloween charcuterie board fun and interesting for everyone!
When pulling it together, make sure to layer your items and use bowls or small trays that double as food dividers and decoration! I like to be sure that my platter or cutting board is fully covered by all my food items, so as you can see the items are placed right next to each other, almost overlapping.
Follow these easy steps and you’ll have a fun Halloween charcuterie board for your next party!
What to put on your Halloween Charcuterie Board
For this board, I gathered an array of sweets that my kids love. In addition to store-bought bags of candy like candy corn pumpkins, Reese’s Pieces and mini Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups. I also included some festive popcorn and white chocolate and pumpkin spice pretzels on this festive Halloween charcuterie board.
