Christmas Antipasto Wreath

Christmas Antipasto Wreath

Christmas Antipasto Wreath. We’re so close to Christmas and you know what that means. Holiday cheese boards are definitely needed. And why not make it festive in the shape of a pretty wreath. I mean this has all the favorite appetizers. Cheeses, meats, nuts, crackers, fruits?! It doesn’t get better for happy hour around Christmas!

Every year we make an Antipasto Christmas Wreath around the holidays. For 1) because they are super pretty. And 2) who doesn’t love an Antipasto Spread?!

This year’s wreath is super pretty. Loaded with lots of Italian meats, fresh cheeses, holiday fruits, and an assortment of festive nuts. Every good holiday cocktail hour needs a delicious cheese broad for snacking. And why not make it festive?!

The wreaths have been a hit every year. Not only are they super yummy, but everyone always gives tons of compliments on how pretty they are! Make sure you load yours with all your favorites because there can be so many variations to these super cute creations! But don't forget your wines and cocktails, they’re just as important for happy hour!
