Make a Pumpkin Charcuterie Board that is the perfect entertaining snack for a Halloween or fall party. We built it with cherry candies, Montmorency dried cherries, and Iced Imperial Pretzels to create a mouthwatering masterpiece.
The Jack Of All Treats
We love to entertain at Cherry Republic no matter the season, that’s why some of our favorite gift boxes are our Fill The Bowls or The Full Board Charcuterie. When talking about our Halloween and fall plans, we wanted to do something that would wow guests and be the perfect party treat. Through this discussion, our Pumpkin Charcuterie Board was born. We built it so you can build one too for your family and friends this fall! There’s no tricks to building this treat of a jack-o-lantern.

How To Make A Pumpkin Charcuterie Board
We used a 20 inch round pizza wood board and it worked perfectly for the pumpkin shape and amount of cherry products we used.
First, narrow down on to the board where you want to place the nose and eyes. We did triangles for the nose and eyes. Fill the triangles with your bag of Montmorency Dried Cherries.
For the mouth, we shaped our Dark Chocolate Covered Cherries into a smile.
From there, we grabbed our Iced Imperial Pretzels and Cherry Licorice Bites and lined the edge of the pizza board in a circle. We then took our Wild Cherry Gummy Bears and Ruby Red Sour Cherry Patches and filled in the board until no wood was left showing.
For the stem we took fresh sprigs of cedar and a pine cone and laid them at the top on the handle. This is the perfect activity to do with your kids or as a family. Everyone will love helping, if they can resist eating all of the candy before making the Pumpkin Charcuterie Board!
