First, with a cookie cutter, form a snowflake out of a slice of white cheese. You can cut out a star or just a small sized circle. Cut the rest of the white cheese into small cubes.
Arrange the brie cheese on a flat surface. Slice the thin white top section into about 1/3 of the circumference. Cut out small triangles to make Santa Claus whiskers.
You can use a wooden board or tray for the background. We took a tray and covered it with a napkin. Arrange the brie cheese. Add halves of olive circles – eyes and bell peppers – Santa’s mouth. From a strip of brie cheese, cut a strip of brie to make a hat brim. Cut the remaining brie randomly.
Cut the salami into half circles. Arrange the salami in fancy swirls so that the slices rest on top of each other.
Lay out salami in the shape of a hat. Arrange the snowflake pompon.
In two corners of the tray, place crackers in a red paper muffin mold. In other corners, place small glass rosettes with cowboy candy and apricots.
Arrange mozzarella balls, cheeses, nuts, herbs and berries.
