Prepare the Brie:

• Remove the top of the Brie wheel. Spread raspberry jam on the surface.
• Use a small Christmas tree cookie cutter to create a festive design from the Brie’s top layer, and place the cutout over the jam.

Prep Pomegranate Seeds:

• Extract seeds from a fresh pomegranate or use pre-packaged seeds.

Assemble the Board:

• Place the Brie with the jam tree on one side of a circular cutting board.
• Position a small bowl of pomegranate seeds on the opposite side of the board.

Add the Cheddar Cheese:

• Arrange the cubed cheddar cheese in two clusters on opposite ends of the board. This creates balance and helps fill the space.

Add Fruits and Crackers:

• Arrange strawberries in two clusters, ensuring a pop of red color in different areas.
• Place raspberries and blackberries in separate groups around the board, alternating light and dark colors.
• Add crackers (both Ritz and Tuscan) around the perimeter of the board and in smaller clusters near the Brie.

Incorporate Holiday Touches:

• Scatter Marshmallow Santas, peppermint bark, and mini gingerbread cookies across the board for festive flair.

Fill Gaps and Finalize:

• Fill any remaining gaps with extra fruit, crackers, or candy. Add decorative knives or small serving utensils for an elegant touch.
