Want a dessert that will impress? Think dessert charcuterie board!

Yes, charcuterie boards have rebranded themselves as a feast for all affairs that doesn’t apply just to breakfast or fancy dinner parties.

Upgrade your dessert game with this simple trick – instead of baking up a storm (and making a lot of mess), create a curated selection of treats everyone would love and appreciate!

People love to pick and choose, try different flavors and experiment – the more choices the better! That’s why dessert charcuterie boards are such a crowd-pleaser – everyone finds what they love the most and you don’t have to rely on a single dessert to take the crown for the evening!

Glazed chocolate strawberries, raw nuts, ice cream with fudge and cookies, or its majesty the chocolate; a French chocolate truffle recipe would surely do the trick.

You don’t need to worry about which dessert to serve first- the heavier, or the lighter?

How to Choose Your Dessert Charcuterie Board

Before you get all excited and start throwing random things together on a chopping board, a bit of planning goes a long way, especially for a simple thing such as your dessert charcuterie board.

Firstly, check the list of your guests to see if there is anyone with allergies of any type – most common probably nut allergies. Make sure you don’t include something that you will have to pinpoint for those with allergies.

Secondly, is there a theme you want to stick to? Is it a birthday celebration or perhaps a special holiday? That should influence the selection and presentation of ingredients you include on your board.

And last, but a very practical one – make sure you don’t go overboard with ingredients that melt very quickly, especially if served outdoors in the summer or in over-heated homes in the winter.

How to Create Dessert Charcuterie Board

  1. Lay out your ingredients so you see their sizes, colors and shapes
  2. Start from the center of the board and with each ingredient create a shape that groups them close together
  3. Make sure you alternate the flavors and colors, so the same color ingredients are not placed right next to each other
  4. Create a bit of depth by pilling some ingredients higher up
  5. Use small bowls to hold smaller food items
  6. Make sure the colors and shapes are evenly distributed on the board
  7. Set up your cutlery and plates closeby (if needed)
  8. Present to your guests and enjoy!
