Directions

Description - Step 1

Prepare the Base

Start with a large wooden or slate board. Place a small pumpkin or gourd in the centre as your visual anchor. It sets the Halloween mood instantly and gives structure to your arrangement.

Description - Step 2

Arrange the Cheese

Lay the brie wedges on one side for a soft texture contrast. Add sharp cheddar cubes beside them for a pop of orange, and position Colby Jack bat shapes around the edges. Leave space between types to highlight their unique colours and shapes.

Description - Step 3

Style the Meats

Form salami slices into mini ‘roses’ by folding and curling them. Layer the prosciutto in thin ribbons nearby for a rustic yet elegant appeal. Their pinkish tones add a subtle “flesh’ element; perfect for Halloween’s playful theme.

Description - Step 4

Add Crackers and Bread

Cluster black sesame crackers and mini pretzels beside the meats for crunch and colour contrast. Place toasted baguette slices along one edge so guests can easily grab and pair them with cheese or dips.

Description - Step 5

Add Fruits and Sweets

Scatter grapes, strawberries, and apricots in open spaces for bursts of freshness and colour. Add candy corn and dark chocolate squares to introduce sweetness and visual variety; their orange and black tones tie perfectly into the Halloween palette.

Description - Step 6

Place Dips and Veggies

Spoon hummus and beetroot dip into small bowls. Garnish the beetroot dip with black olive ‘eyeballs’; slice olives crosswise and set them in the centre. Surround the dips with baby carrots and cucumber slices for easy scooping.

Description - Step 7

Final Touches

Tuck rosemary sprigs in corners for greenery. Strategically place toy spiders to complete the spooky look. Refrigerate until ready to serve; the slight chill enhances freshness and presentation.
