Pumpkin Spice Dessert Board
Fall never tasted so good! Imagine a board piled with soft pumpkin spice cookies, mini pumpkin pies, and gooey cinnamon rolls—all the flavors that make autumn feel like a warm hug. Add crisp apple slices, graham crackers, and a few mini pumpkins or cinnamon sticks to make it look as good as it tastes.
Autumn Harvest Cheese Board
This is my go-to when friends come over for a casual evening. Brie, cheddar, and gouda, plus fresh figs, crisp apple slices, and walnuts—I always drizzle a little honey for that extra touch. It looks rustic but tastes like a dream. Pro tip: add some rosemary sprigs—they make the board look like it’s straight out of a magazine.

This board is like autumn in a platter! I love combining crisp apple slices, cheddar cheese, cinnamon-dusted nuts, and caramel drizzle. Add a few mini apple tarts or spiced cookies, and you’ve got a spread that tastes as good as it looks.
Serve with a small cup of warm apple cider or caramel dip on the side—guests can dunk or drizzle as they like. It’s interactive, festive, and full of cozy fall vibes.

I usually put this out while the turkey is still in the oven—guests love snacking while mingling, and it keeps everyone happy before the big meal.

This board is perfect for those who love a little spice with their snacks.

The colors alone—orange, deep purple, and golden brown—make it feel so festive and autumnal.
Autumn Grazing Board
What I love most? You can mix and match flavors with every bite. One minute you’re enjoying sweet dried apricots with sharp cheddar, the next you’re pairing savory salami with crunchy nuts.

A few sprigs of rosemary or thyme tucked in between make it look effortlessly beautiful.
Maple-Themed Board
Nothing says fall quite like maple. For this board, I love mixing maple-glazed nuts, maple cheddar cheese, crispy bacon drizzled with maple syrup, and little jars of maple butter. Add some fluffy pancakes or waffles cut into bite-size squares and suddenly the whole spread feels like a warm autumn morning.
Fig & Prosciutto Board
This is one of those boards that feels effortlessly fancy but is secretly so easy to pull together.

The sweet-and-salty combo is always a hit.

This board is like an afternoon coffee date, but prettier!

A few cinnamon sticks and whipped cream on the side make it feel extra special.
Autumn Breakfast Board
There’s something so special about starting a crisp fall morning with a board that feels like a hug. I love filling mine with fluffy pancakes, mini waffles, scrambled eggs, crispy bacon, and warm croissants.

Savory & Sweet Mix
I love this board because it’s a little bit naughty, a little bit nice—perfect for fall snacking. I usually mix smoked meats, honey-roasted nuts, dried fruits, and a variety of cheeses. Each bite is a fun surprise—one moment it’s sweet, the next it’s savory.
My favorite trick? Adding small bowls of fig jam or spicy mustard so everyone can customize their bites. I always find myself sneaking “just one more” combo before the guests arrive. This board is perfect for game nights, cozy evenings, or casual get-togethers—and it never lasts long!

Who says s’mores are just for dessert? This Savory S’mores Board is all about taking that classic idea and giving it a grown-up, fall-friendly twist.
