Easter Charcuterie Board Ideas
Colorful Additions: One of the best things about setting up a charcuterie board is that you can get as creative as you want with it. Consider adding some colorful fruits, such as mandarin oranges, apricots, pomegranates, or dragonfruit for a pop of color. You can also add colorful vegetables like cherry tomatoes, bell peppers, radishes, or carrots—all of which pair nicely with cheese and meats.
Cheeses & Meats: The classic staples of any charcuterie board include cheeses and meats. To keep with the Easter theme, consider adding some seasonal cheeses such as brie or gouda. For the meats portion of your board, why not try something special like honey glazed ham or smoked salmon? You can also mix in some other favorites like prosciutto or salami to round out the selection of meats.
Sweets & Treats: No charcuterie board is complete without some sweet treats! Consider adding small chocolate eggs in fun colors or homemade marshmallow peeps dipped in chocolate. You can also add different flavored honeys and jams for those who prefer something more savory than sweet. If you're feeling adventurous, try making mini creme eggs or cupcakes topped with edible flowers for an extra special touch.
