Garnish Ideas to Give Your Halloween Charcuterie a Scary Touch
When it comes to adding that extra spooky flair to your Halloween charcuterie board, garnishes are where the fun really begins!
I super enjoy getting creative with these little touches because they can turn your board from bright to downright eerie.
Here are some of my favorite scary garnish ideas:
Mummified Treats
For this, wrap your cheese or mini sandwiches in strips of puff pastry or crescent dough to create “mummy” shapes. A couple of olive slices make perfect “eyes” peeking out from the pastry. It’s a fun and festive way to add a scary, yet tasty touch to your board.
Blood-Curdling Sauces
Add a little “blood” to your dips and sauces with a drizzle of red salsa or beet puree. It’s a simple way to give your charcuterie board a gory edge without compromising on flavor. Plus, it makes for a great conversation starter!
Sinister Fruit Shapes
Use cookie cutters to shape fruits like apples or melons into ghoulish figures such as ghosts, bats, or even tiny pumpkins. It’s a fun way to incorporate seasonal fruit into your board while keeping the Halloween spirit alive. This is one of my favorites!
Have fun with these ideas and let your creativity run wild—you might just find that the scariest part is keeping yourself from snacking on all the delicious treats!
Combining Halloween Treats with Charcuterie Board
One of the best parts about Halloween is the opportunity to blend spooky treats with your charcuterie board for a full spooky experience.
My go-to trick is mixing traditional charcuterie food with fun Halloween goodies! You can make your treats extra special with these Halloween Treat Bag Toppers!
Scary Cupcakes
It’s impossible to resist adding a batch of Halloween-themed cupcakes, decorated with ghoulish frosting and edible decorations. These mini treats are perfect for a sweet balance with your charcuterie board.
Pumpkin Spice Popcorn
I like to add a bowl of pumpkin spice popcorn to my board. The sweet and spicy flavor of pumpkin spice is a seasonal favorite! You can also adjust the spice if ever there are kids who don’t like spicy food!
Chocolate-Covered Pretzels and Strawberries
For something less scary, I add chocolate-covered pretzels and strawberries with Halloween sprinkles. The combination of sweet and salty is always a hit, and the festive sprinkles add a fun touch that really matches the spooky theme of your board.
By combining these fun and festive Halloween treats with your charcuterie board, you’ll create a spread that’s as exciting to look at as it is to eat.
