Ingredients
- 10 ounces cherry tomatoes
- 10 ounces bocconcini mozzarella cheese balls
- 10 ounces yellow cheese Cheddar, Old Amsterdam or Gouda
- 18 ounces Italian Castelvetrano olives, pitted
- 18 ounces kalamata olives
- 10 ounces marinated roasted red peppers, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 ounces sundried tomatoes
- 2 ounces fresh Rosemary
- 2 ounces fresh basil
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons sea salt flakes
Instructions
- Wrap the styrofoam cone with plastic wrap and set it on a serving board.
- At the base of the cone, insert a toothpick halfway and then add a cherry tomato. Continue adding toothpicks with mozzarella balls, yellow cheese cubes, Castelvetrano olives, kalamata olives, marinated roasted red peppers, and sundried tomatoes, alternating them as you go around.
- As you create the next layer, place the items so they fill in the spaces between the ingredients below.
- Keep adding layers until the cone is fully covered, ensuring even distribution of all ingredients.
- Tuck small sprigs of rosemary into the gaps to resemble pine needles.
- Optional: Cut a star shape out of yellow cheese and place it on top.
- Lightly brush the tree with olive oil for a slight sheen.
- Sprinkle sea salt flakes over the tree to finish.
- Serve the antipasto tree immediately or refrigerate until you're ready to enjoy
