Whether you’re decking the halls, or (in this case) decking your tables for all the summer soirées, we love the festivities (and food) of the holiday period. Hosting a Christmas get-together this year? Have your guests snack on one of these Christmas-themed party boards.
Candy cane Caprese board
Who says a salad needs to go in a bowl? This Caprese candy cane board makes for the cutest appetiser. This super easy board only needs a few ingredients, but instantly serves Instagram looks. You only need mozzarella cheese, tomato, and fresh basil leaves placed in the shape of a candy cane. Sprinkle some balsamic vinegar for some extra cheer and your candy cane is good to go.
@charcuterie_n_things Day 3: Candy Cane Caprese Board This festive board is quite possibly the easiest to create—and it’s always a crowd-pleaser! Simply alternate slices of fresh mozzarella and ripe tomatoes to form the iconic candy cane shape. Add some fresh basil and drizzle balsamic glaze and that is literally all you have to do! Pair it with crackers, a baguette, or enjoy it as is. Simplicity at its finest! #fyp #charcuterieandthings #charcuterieboard #cheeseboard #foodstyling #diy #candycane #capresesalad #mozzarella #christmas #christmasrecipes #holidayhosting ♬ Merry Christmas – Ed Sheeran & Elton John
Christmas tree board
Why put your gifts under the tree when you can present a yummy board at your party? And it’s easier to make than you’d think! Start with the star at the top. If you’re going the savoury route, make a toasted cheese sandwich and cut it out in the shape of a star. Making a sweet board? A chocolate cake, waffle or even this delicious giant choc-chip cookie will do the trick. Then, create diagonal lines with an array of fruit, cheeses, crackers, meats, sweets or cakes, with each line longer than the one before. And voila! You’ve got yourself a Christmas tree.

Edible wreath
Start by getting a round platter or cutting board to arrange your wreath on. Decorate your ‘wreath’ with nuts, cut cheeses, meats, crackers and sauces. Since you are decorating your board in a circular shape, it’s easy to bunch each of these next to each other until it forms a circle. It’s quick and easy and the result is a yummy work of art.
