Method

  1. Create a circular wreath-shaped border using most of the herbs and greenery.
  2. Stack the Gouda stars to make one tall star and place this at the top of the wreath.  
  3. Place the other cheeses evenly around the board in different spots.
  4. Continue to fill up the spaces with the fruits, nuts, crackers and meats, creating a decorative pattern.  
  5. Use strawberries like baubles to add pops of bright colour, then use some more herbs to fill out the wreath and perfect the shape.
