Step-by-Step Instructions for Hocus Pocus Snack Board

  • Start by placing the three wheels of brie cheese on your serving board, spreading them out to create a spacious and inviting layout.
  • Next, take the Twizzlers pull and peel licorice and cut them into manageable lengths. Shape these colorful strips into lips, placing one on each brie wheel.
  • Slice the black olives into rounds, ensuring they are thick enough to maintain their shape. Place two olive slices on each brie wheel as eyes.
  • For Sarah's hair, generously sprinkle popcorn around her brie wheel, adding a whimsical and textured look.
  • Take pepperoni slices and roll them tightly. Spear several rolled pieces onto a toothpick, forming a quirky, curly hairdo for Winifred.
  • Pile up the blackberries to form Mary’s dark and luscious locks.
  • Use raspberries to create a flowing design for Sarah, and arrange green grapes for Winifred’s gown. Finally, place small orange slices for Mary’s attire.
  • Utilizing your cookie cutters, create fun shapes like bats and broomsticks from sliced cheese.
  • To complete your board, arrange the extra fruit, crackers, and chips around the main decorations, ensuring there are no bare spots left.
  • Once you’re satisfied with the arrangement of your Hocus Pocus Snack Board, it’s time to serve. Present your creation immediately to maintain freshness.

Notes

For the best presentation and flavor, serve your snack board right after assembling. Cheese and fruit are best enjoyed fresh!
