How to Make an Easter Charcuterie Board

Remove both ends of the cucumber, then slice it into rounds. Arrange the slices on a cutting board, sprinkle them lightly with salt, and let them sit for 5–7 minutes. Afterwards, gently dab away any excess moisture from the cucumber rounds with a paper towel.

Slice a triangular piece of Brie horizontally to create two layers. Use a cookie cutter to cut out a bunny shape on the top layer. Place the top layer back over the bottom layer and fill the bunny cutout with honey.

Repeat this process with semi-hard cheese slices to make matching bunny shapes.

Fold two salami slices together to create a ribbon-like shape. Next, arrange the remaining salami slices in a circle, overlapping them on top of a shot glass. Carefully flip the glass over to reveal a large salami rose.

Arrange the Brie cheese on the board so its pointed tip faces the center. Wrap a ribbon of salami around the edge of the cheese.

Arrange the veggies – cucumbers on the right and roasted peppers on the left. Place the salami rose on top, then add the cookies. Create a small heart-shaped space around the cookies and fill it with chocolate eggs.

Place cherry tomatoes around the cheese, nesting them on baby spinach and arugula layers. Fill any open spots with pretzels, marmalade candy eggs, and any remaining chocolate eggs.

Position the cheese bunnies, then finish off the board with decorative greenery.

Tips to Make the Perfect Easter Cheese Board

Need help building your Easter board like a pro? Here’s what we’ve learned from making a million of these:

• Start big, then fill small. Place your main items (brie, meat, and veggies) first, then fill in the gaps with candies, crackers, and fruit.
• Use height and contrast. Layer ingredients, roll your meats, stack cookies, and use bowls for dips or spreads.
• Go for color. Focus on greens, oranges, yellows, and pastel pinks for that spring vibe.
• Add your favorite seasonal candies or snacks to make it personal.
