What To Add On A Easter Charcuterie Board?
Like I mentioned above, you first need to decide what kind of board you want to make. Traditional charcuterie boards of course feature a variety of meats, cheeses, seasonal fruits, fresh vegetables, crackers, olives, jellies, and jams for example.
So basically more savory foods than sweet. But, I decided to go all out and create a charcuterie dessert board featuring some of my favorite Easter candy instead.
All the pastel colors on the board from the candy really stand out and look so pretty! You could even add some hard-boiled eggs or deviled eggs to keep on the Easter theme too!
Everything I added on this particular board includes:
- Cadbury Mini Chocolate Eggs
- Jelly Beans
- Bunny Bait Trail Mix
- Reese’s Easter Eggs
- Marshmallow Peeps
- Easter M&Ms
- Easter Chocolate Covered Strawberries
So basically, I made a festive spread full of fun Easter candies! I was also originally going to add a variety of cheeses and use my Easter cookie cutters to cut out Easter shapes with the soft cheeses too.
But unfortunately, I misplaced the cookie cutters and could not find them for the life of me! But anyway, you can easily add in fresh fruits, savory meats, and a cheese platter along with all the colorful candies too!
And it makes it super convenient that you can just grab everything you need from your local grocery store to make this fun board too!
How To Style Tasty Easter Charcuterie Board
There’s really no rhyme or reason for styling an easy Easter charcuterie board like this. You can basically just throw things around on a big beautiful board and call it a day!
But, I do like to try to make esthetically pleasing as well! I like to use platters and small bowls of various sizes to add onto the board to organize things.
You could even arrange things in an egg shape to keep on theme too! I started by adding the chocolate covered strawberries on a platter and placing it on the serving board.
It’s a good idea to start with larger pieces like this first, and then you can fill in the rest of the board easily after. I also placed the mini chocolate eggs, jelly beans, and M&Ms into little bowls around the board too.
Then, I just separated some of the marshmallow bunnies and placed them around the board too. I thought about unwrapping the Reese’s eggs and placing them on the board like that. But, I was worried they may start to melt a little, even at room temperature.
And I didn’t want to have melted chocolate all over the board. So I thought it was best to just keep them wrapped up. It would also be a fun idea to add in some chocolate bunnies too if you have them.
To store leftover charcuterie platter, just wrap it up with some plastic wrap and save for later. Of course, remove anything that needs to be refrigerated first though!
