- Red, white and blue suckers
How to Put Your Patriotic Charcuterie Board Together:
Gather all your ingredients.
Line your board with parchment paper to help protect it.
Cut the cheese into pieces that are just larger than the star cookie cutter. Then slice the cheese into 4 slices. Use the cookie cutter to cut stars out of the cheese.
Roll the salami into a thin cone shape.
Add the blackberries, raspberries, and gumballs to small white bowls. Arrange the bowls onto the board first.
Arrange the salami next, as it will take up some space.
Then arrange the other ingredients, trying to alternate with the colors.
Add the candy coins next, filling in any empty spaces.
Enjoy!

- You can really use whatever red, white, and blue ingredients you like, customizing it to your liking. You can use more or less amounts of each ingredient too, depending on the size of your board.
- Use a 1-inch star cookie cutter to cut the cheese.
- I used small white ramekin-type- bowls.
