Choose a large wooden board, marble slab, or serving tray as your base. Ensure it’s clean and ready for assembly.
Start by placing small bowls filled with dips and spreads around the board to create anchor points.
Arrange olives, olive tapenade, and salted nuts in clusters near the dips.
Add fruits, dates, candied nuts, and chocolate in separate sections to balance flavors.
Place vegan cheeses, hummus, and crispy chickpeas close to the crackers or bread.
Add spicy elements like vegan pepperoni or spicy pickled cauliflower for an extra kick.
Fill in the gaps with crackers, bread, and fresh veggies for dipping.
Finish with fresh herbs, edible flowers, or a sprinkle of nuts to add visual appeal. Serve immediately and enjoy!
