Instructions
- On a 20-inch round wood board with a small handle, place three candy corn-shaped cookie cutters in place for the pumpkin’s eyes and nose. Shape the black grapes into a smile for the pumpkin’s mouth. Fill the cookie cutters with the blackberries.
- Start by lining the cheese slices down the middle of the board. Line the remaining orange colored snacks out on both sides of the cheese slices and around the black fruits until the board is completely covered. With the orange foods on the edge of the board, pack them tightly so they stay in place if you transfer the board to another location to serve.
- Carefully, lift the cookie cutters from the board, shaping the blackberries back into the triangle shape, if necessary. You can always add more black fruits or orange snacks to fill in any gaps.
- Place the thinly sliced cucumber at the top of the board in a bent shape for the pumpkin’s stem.
- Serve and enjoy!
