The best time to assemble this board is right before you serve it. It's possible to make this board in advance and put it in the fridge but with cheese and fruit, it's best to serve slightly cool or room temperature.

Start by cutting up all your ingredients. Begin by assembling your tree from the bottom to the top alternating colors, sizes and textures to shake things up. Overlay the ingredients and use the nuts for the trunk. Another good option is pomegranate seeds.

Serve the board with crackers and napkins or small plates to make it easy to eat.
