Thanksgiving & Christmas Charcuterie Boards for your Whole Family to Enjoy

Charcuterie boards are a fun way to enhance gatherings with a wide variety of delicious fare. As we enter into the season of hosting family, friends and loved ones for meals, we hope you enjoy these fun ideas to add to your Thanksgiving Charcuterie board.

First, a solid base, AKA, the board itself is the perfect starting point. At DaleTree, we have a variety of colors, woods and finishes to choose from. A popular choice is an epoxy charcuterie board (such as the one pictured here) with either a Walnut, Russian Olive, or Maple base. We also love a natural edge board to add flare to a gathering or many use one of our inlay cutting boards

Next, it’s important to consider your guests and create a board with foods to please many!  We love mixing fun adult selections with tasty treats for kids.

For fall, in addition to the meats, cheeses, and olives found on many boards, why not add nuts, breads, soups or even caramel apples!  The beauty of serving your guests from a Charcuterie board is that the options are endless. We love adding seasonal spreads, cheeses and candies to add something special to the presentation.

Prosciutto wrapped cheese or breadsticks accompanied with fresh sliced pears and apples make a delicious treat along with a beautiful presentation.

Serving picky guests like our children? Try adding pretzels, nuts and even some sweet treats to impress even the toughest little critics.
