Rainbow Fruit And Cheese Platter

Is there anything cuter than a rainbow you can eat? This one is one of the easiest crowd pleasers on the whole list. Just line up fruit in little rows by color so the board basically decorates itself, then tuck cubed cheese into all the gaps.

• Grapes and blueberries make perfect filler for tight corners
• Zero cooking and it uses whatever fruit is ripe
• Ready in 20 minutes flat, so cute

Want fancy vibes without any fuss? Do a mini sparkling cider and cheese pairing for four. Small pours next to small cheese cubes feel so special, and soft cheeses like brie or a triple cream pair best with something bubbly.

• Little glass tumblers make it feel extra fancy
• Ten minute setup, that is it

Pink Themed Girls Night Board

Calling all pink lovers, this board is pure blush bliss. Pink Lady apples, watermelon radish and salami roses all work together so well. The original author shares that her sister Jenna made one for a birthday last spring and guests kept asking who catered it, never believing it was just 30 minutes of slicing.

• Salami roses do the heavy lifting
• Watermelon radish adds the perfect crunch
