Place unwrapped wedge of Brie as a focal point on your platter. Unwrap Boursin cheese leaving it in its mini wheel form, and place it on opposite side of platter from brie. Cut remaining cheese into ¼-inch slices and then into perfectly matched square shapes (Gouda will be wedge shaped), no larger than 2” x 2”. Arrange each of 2-inch cheese slices in uniform flowing consistent lines. Place strawberries, cashews, dried cranberries, and red grapes in balanced void areas on platter between cheeses.
