Valentine’s Charcuterie Board

Valentine’s charcuterie boards are perfect for an intimate gathering with your special loved one, a fun night with your best girlfriends, or as a special after school snack for your kids. Here are some tips on how to make one at home complete with a sweet charcuterie board shopping list!

How to Make a Charcuterie Board

I start by shopping for all the ingredients I want to include on my board. When shopping for ingredients for your dessert board gather a variety of textures, colors, shapes, and flavors!

Choose a color scheme for your Valentine’s charcuterie dessert board. I chose red, white and pink with a few chocolate accents.

How to Assemble Your Valentine’s Charcuterie Board 

When building my Valentine’s Charcuterie board, I start with a main focal point, such as a festive cookie or a fun-shaped bowl. I used a heart-shaped bowl to highlight the Valentine theme.

I begin by adding large items to the corners and filling in the rest of the dessert board with smaller items. When adding items, I make sure to cover the board completely and layer items on top of each other to achieve a consistent height.

As I fill in my Valentine’s charcuterie board, I make sure I have a balance of colors and flavors around my board. To complete my board, I fill in any extra space with small candies.
