Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Cut sliced Provolone cheese into stars with star shaped cookie cutter. Cut out one of the Camembert cheese wheels with the same star cookie cutter, then fill the hole with pomegranate seeds. Slice the star fruit.
  2. Place a bunch of mini salami sticks at the bottom for the tree trunk. Tie with a string or ribbon if desired, to hold the trunk shape.
  3. Then arrange a tree on a vertically-oriented rectangular board. Build yourtree starting from the bottom with a row of red currant at the base. Thenadd lines of red and green grapes, cubed gouda, Classic Camembert, anddifferent types of salami and cheese. Keep layering in with Ham, Prosciutto,salami, olives, and nuts. The order is not strict - be creative and have fun - arrange the ingredients as desired in the shape of a Christmas tree. Make sure each layer of Christmas tree is slightly less wide than the last to ensure the triangle tree shape. Stick little sprigs of rosemary in between layers to look like pine needles.
  4. Decorate the tree with the small cheese stars and star fruit. Add a festive star shaped cookie at the top or use another cheese star or star fruit slice.
  5. Last, place any dips, spreads, and sweets around your board. Also offer biscotti, crackers, and/or breads.
