Show Your Love with a Valentine's Charcuterie Board

Celebrate love on Valentine's Day or anytime!

By Sandy Wallace January 22, 2024

Celebrate Valentine's Day with a charcuterie board filled with sweet Valentine's goodies, fruit, cheeses, and other yummy treats. It's quick and easy to make and the perfect dessert for Valentine's Day or any special occasion. 

We used a serving platter, but you can also use a wooden charcuterie board or just a large plate. Here's what we used for our Valentine's charcuterie:

  • Sliced cheese
  • Cheese cut into hearts
  • Crackers
  • Strawberries
  • Raspberries
  • Red grapes
  • Pink wafer cookies
  • Chocolate heart-shaped cakes
  • Red velvet cake balls
  • Red and pink chocolate kisses
  • Valentine's gummy candy

You can also add: lunch meat cut into heart shapes, raw vegetables, Valentine's cookies, candy, and any other favorite family treats. The kids love helping make charcuterie trays, so let them help!
