Notes

  • Use this list as a general guide. – these are the ingredients we used to build this exact cheese plate, but don’t be afraid to mix it up using your favorite snacks and cheeses or anything you have on hand!
  • Always wash and dry the fruit before cutting them. 
  • Try to have a variety of crackers to serve with the cheese boards as the different types of cheeses require different types of crackers (ie more flavourful crackers vs more mild crackers).
  • To store: Store leftovers in separate airtight containers in the fridge.
