The right types of cheese

In order to offer enough variety and something for every taste, you should use 4 to 6 different types of cheese for the Halloween Charcuterie Board. Depending on whether the cheese platter is intended as finger food or a meal in its own right, count on 100-150 grams of cheese per person and make sure that you have at least one representative from each cheese family. For example, cheddar is always a classic and the bright orange fits perfectly with the Halloween theme.

Soft cheeses such as Brie, Camembert or goat cheese are always a winner and you can use cookie cutters to cut out little ghost faces, pumpkins, skeletons etc. But first make sure the cheese is really cold and firm. While mozzarella isn't a cheese you would normally use for a cheese board, mini mozzarella balls work perfectly as "eyeballs" for the Halloween charcuterie board. Simply stick edible eyes on it and the mozzarella will look much scarier.

In addition to different types of cheese, meat and dips are also included on a Halloween charcuterie board. To ensure that all your guests are satisfied, use different types of meat here too.
