Steps to Build

1. Select your Cheeses

   • Serve three to five different types of cheeses so it’s not overwhelming
   • Select cheeses that have different flavours and textures
   • You don't want your cheese to dry out, so be sure to assemble the day of serving

2. Choose accompaniments

3. Put it together

   • Choose a big board with plenty of room for all of your ingredients
   • Cheese is best served at room temperature, remove from the refrigerator an hour before arranging 
   • Create height and visual interest throughout your board. Items such as jams, biscotti and certain cheeses will fit nicely in teacups, bowls or mini mason jars.
   • Serving a wedge of cheese that has rind on three sides? Consider cutting the rind off two sides so guests can easily cut a piece of cheese to eat.
   • If you’re serving a small wheel of cheese (like Camembert or Mt. Tam) cut out a small wedge so guests know how the cheese should be cut

4. Enjoy!
