Assembling a Holiday Cheese Platter masthead

What’s party without some cheese? While preparing a cheese platter during the Christmas holidays isn’t uncommon, serving one may feel overwhelming for those new to this or if you have no idea where to begin.   

We’ve put together a simple guide and easy suggestions to help you pick out the right ingredients and assemble a delicious cheese platter to enjoy with your loved ones this Christmas!   

For families, you can get your kids involved in the preparation process too! To begin, let them be involved in choosing their favourite fruits, washing them, and assembling them on the platter. Then, tap into their artistic side by teaching them to arrange the ingredients in a colour gradient, from light to dark shades. Finally, guide them to use a child-safe knife to cut the softer cheeses into their favourite shapes, teaching them safe cutting techniques and the proper handling of utensils.
