Slice & Prepare: Cut cheese into a mix of cubes, wedges, and triangles for variety. Slice pears just before serving and soak briefly in club soda to prevent browning.

Start with Cheese: Arrange the four Wood River Creamery cheeses in different corners or sections of your board to anchor the layout.

Add Meats: Gently fold or ribbon the prosciutto and tuck it around the cheese sections.

Layer the Produce: Place dried figs and fresh pears in small clusters to add color and texture. Add cornichons in a small bowl for contrast.

Add Crunch: Fill gaps with crackers, crisps, and almonds for texture and variety.

Finish with Dips: Place fig jam and honey in small bowls or jars on the board. Drizzle a touch of honey over the truffle cheese for an extra flavor highlight.

Garnish & Serve: For a final touch, sprinkle extra almonds or a few fig slices around the edges for a beautiful, inviting finish.
