We recently shared our introduction to generational holiday entertaining<\/a> with Gen Z’s simple take on cheese boards. We are taking a look at how Boomers, Gen Xs, Millennials and Gen Zs assemble delicious cheese boards.<\/p>\n

This time, millennials are up and they tend to spend more money and time on entertaining. Avaah Blackwell<\/a> is a Canadian stunt woman and actress on Star Trek Discovery and like her generation, she\u2019s all about the show. Since they\u2019re all very collaborative too, Avaah connected with her friends first to create an Insta-Worthy Board with something for everyone. She used her favourite premium cheeses by Castello, Canada\u2019s #1 selling specialty cheese brand, to carve Havarti Party trees, cut star shapes out of brie to fill with jam, and turned the Taste Hawaii and Taste Mexico cream cheese rings into holiday wreaths. A true masterpiece!<\/p>\n

Rosemary <\/span><\/p>\n

Crackers <\/span><\/p>\n

Directions<\/span><\/h2>\n

Create your \u201chavarti party tree\u201d by slicing your Castello Havarti and stacking it on angles, repeating until your desired height. Then, add some pomegranate seeds for decor. <\/span><\/p>\n

Add the Castello Pineapple & Almond Cream Cheese Ring and place two pieces of tiny mint leaves at an angle with two pomegranate seeds below to serve as holly.  <\/span><\/p>\n

For the Castello Piquant Cream Cheese Ring use two pieces of basil with a small cherry tomato cut in half to create the holly effect. <\/span><\/p>\n

Slice a thin piece of Brie off the top, then using a star shaped cookie cutter, cut out a star.  Place the top back on the brie and fill with fig jam. <\/span><\/p>\n

Use tree cookie cutters to cut out shapes from the Gouda and place strategically throughout your board. Cube the rest of your cheese, add salami roses and garnish with your favorite fruit, herbs and nuts. <\/span><\/p>\n
