A great starter to any holiday party, a beautifully staged cheese board is impressive and beautiful.

Garnish with honeycomb, nuts, and dried fruits like apricots and macrona almonds. Add fresh herbs as an accent to give your platter visual depth and energy.  Don’t forget to place it all on a fabulous board.
