Fruits:

• Blackberries (dark and mysterious)
• Sliced Pears (for a sweet contrast)
• Pomegranate Seeds (for a pop of color)

Nuts:

• Honey-Roasted Almonds (sweet and crunchy)

Crackers and Bread:

• Pumpkin-Shaped Crackers (for a festive touch)

Spooky Additions:

Assembly Instructions:

1. Select Your Board: Use a large wooden or slate board as your base for the grazing spread.

2. Arrange the Cheeses: Place the ghostly white cheddar, black truffle cheese, and creamy blue cheese in different board sections. You can cut the cheddar into fun shapes using cookie cutters for added spookiness.

3. Add the Meats: Create salami roses by rolling the slices into flower shapes and placing them on the board. Arrange the capicola slices nearby.

4. Incorporate Fruits and Nuts: Fill in the gaps with blackberries, sliced pears, and pomegranate seeds. Scatter the honey-roasted almonds around the board for crunch.

5. Crackers and Bread: Add the pumpkin-shaped crackers and breadsticks, positioning them creatively to enhance the visual appeal.

6. Final Touches: Add green olives and cherry tomatoes to represent little eyeballs. Drizzle honey or spiced fig jam over the cheeses for a sweet contrast.

7. Decorate: For an extra spooky effect, consider adding small Halloween-themed decorations like plastic spiders, mini pumpkins, or edible decorations like candy eyeballs.
