Charcuterie Board Notes

  • Use a bit of white icing to get your loft cookies to easily stick to the charcuterie board. In this case, a little goes a long way, so you will only need a drop or two on the back of each cookie.
  • Give your candy a minimum of one hour to set on the charcuterie board before serving. By doing this, you can keep the candy from falling apart and turning into a huge mess before you’ve had time to serve it.
  • If you can’t find candy-coated popcorn, you can always make your own with a bag of popcorn and some candy melts.
