How to create a Fun and festive Halloween Cheese Board
Who doesn’t love a cheese board?! Cheese boards are my favorite thing to serve for a crowd. They are so fun to make and make the perfect addition for a party! This Halloween Cheese board was so fun to make this year and the kids all LOVED it!!!
When making a cheese board, I always try to stick with a theme, or color pallet. For halloween I chose Orange, white and black! Makes sense.. right??? It was fairly simple to find Halloween themed treats at the store! You can add different color cheeses, fruits, and don’t forget the CANDY!!
The last cheese board I made was for the 4th of July. You can see how the patriotic cheese board turned out here.
If you have never made a cheese board, don’t worry! There are absolutely not rules on the right way to make one. All you need is cheese, crackers and few other sweet treats to go along with it! Once you make one though… don’t be surprised if you are hooked!! I make them all the time!
Easy Tips for Making a Halloween Cheese Board
- There’s no right or wrong way to make a cheese board. Add your favorite things such as nuts, grapes, strawberries, your favorite cheese, a variety of crackers and more!
- Invest in some big cheese boards and cheese knives. (I have some linked for you a the bottom of this post)
- Have fun and add color with fruits and veggies!
- The cheese doesn’t have to be expensive, I find my cheeses at Trader Joes, ALDI’s or Target! You can also cut up the cheeses in different sizes and shapes for different looks!

Thank you for the inspiration. This is a great board for our spooky sleepover with the kiddos. I can’t wait to make ours! What in love the most is that you incorporated things like the crackers and cheese things we always have here in our home. 2020 cheese boards here I come ?
