Choose a base: Select a large, flat serving board or platter as your base. A wooden cutting board or marble platter works beautifully for presentation.
Arrange the chocolates: Place assorted chocolates in clusters around the board, alternating types for color contrast and variety.
Add the fruit: Arrange strawberries in small groups or lines to create visual flow across the board.
Fill in with marshmallows: Add mini marshmallows in small piles throughout to fill spaces and add a soft, fluffy texture.
Include cookies: Stack cookies in small sections for height and texture. Mix cookie types to add visual variety.
Scatter gummy candies: Place gummy bears, worms, or rings around the board to bring pops of color and a playful vibe.
Add salty elements: Place pretzel bites and popcorn either in small bowls or directly on the board to balance the sweet flavors.
Include nuts: Arrange nuts in small clusters or in a bowl for crunch and contrast.
Place dips and toppings: Pour fruit dip and whipped cream into small bowls. Position them on the board near strawberries or cookies for easy dipping.
Garnish and serve: Add fresh mint leaves for a pop of green and freshness. Serve immediately or cover and refrigerate until the party starts.
