YES! Always happy for an excuse to make a charcuterie If only this event started sooner I could have submitted my charcuterie 'gingerbread' house from Christmas.

I have a question What is a charcuterie board for this event? In my place a charcuterie board is mostly a plate with cold and cured meat (charcuteries) but when I googled it, it gave me just anything on a board, cheese, crackers, fruits, sometimes without charcuteries at all

Typically cured meat plus complements e.g. cheese, crackers (or other starch). Fruits, olives, dips, etc also common. Honestly as long as it resembles the theme closely enough it's all good. E.g. vegetarian/vegan or gluten-free users may wish to use alternatives if they choose food prep for their medium which is absolutely fine.

As an example, my family does a charcuterie board for Christmas Eve. It was cured meats, a variety of cheeses, breadsticks, crackers, and pickled onions. Plus raw salmon slices but that is less traditional, I just love salmon.

can it be a untraditional charcuterie board? like can i make a charcuterie board but its all types candy?

Also do the items need to be unpackaged? I’m thinking like the single wrapped cookies and stuff like that. Sadly the only person who would end up eating this is me and that’s probably too much to eat at once
