A fun and spooky Halloween-themed charcuterie board with themed fruits, cheeses, and snacks.

  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 1 large board (serves 8-10) 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 ounces cheddar
  • 6 ounces Gouda
  • Marinated mozzarella
  • Prepared mummy brie
  • Kiwis
  • Blackberries
  • Strawberries
  • Mandarins
  • Sweet peppers
  • Moon Drop grapes
  • Green apples
  • Olives
  • Caramel corn
  • Chocolate covered pretzels/almonds
  • Dried apricots
  • Pistachios
  • Guacamole
  • White or semi-sweet chocolate for melting
  • Crackers, for serving

Instructions

  1. Cut a small ‘x’ in the mandarin. Place a small 1-inch piece of celery in the ‘x’ and gently push down so that it goes through to make ‘pumpkins’.
  2. Cut the kiwi in half. Use a paring knife to score where you’d like the ‘hair line’ to be. Then use a peeler or a paring knife to peel away the rest. Add a small squeeze of chocolate for the eyes and mouth as you’d like.
  3. Pat the peppers dry, add a squeeze of chocolate for the eyes, add candy eyes, and mouth to make ‘shocked peppers’.
  4. Cut the cheese using ghost, pumpkin, or bat shapes. If the cheese is white, place a dark-colored fruit below, then place the cheese on top. Arrange cheeses on your board. Add fresh or faux pumpkins or a skull.
  5. Add cauldrons full of olives, chocolate-covered almonds, guacamole, and place the prepared kiwi, peppers, and mandarins on the board.
  6. Scatter the board with caramel corn, chocolate-covered pretzels, dried apricots, pistachios, and an assortment of crackers.

Notes

  • Use cookie cutters for fun cheese shapes.
  • Keep fruits and veggies chilled until serving.
