joy to the board
Graze and amaze with the best cheeses, the finest cured meats, the fanciest crackers and more.
Crackers: The Fresh Market’s Original Water or Crisp and Classic Entertainer crackers serve as crisp, neutral vessels for creamy cheeses and dips or salty meats. Get more heft and flavor with Firehook artisanbaked Mediterranean-inspired crackers. Add a dash of The Fresh Market golden, flaky cheese straws.
Nuts: Mitica Carmelized Pecans are made in Spain with just three simple ingredients. Buttery pecans are coated in a crisp, golden caramelized sugar shell for a sweet and nutty flavor with a satisfying crunch. For more earthy bites, add Mitica Truffle Marcona Almonds, coated in rich black truffle seasoning.
Cheese: The world of cheese is ripe with endless possibilities. Mix and match wedges to include smoky, herbal, spicy and mild flavors. We included Mustard Dill Gouda and Fennel Bleu, horseradish cheddar and a smoked goat wheel.
Pâté: The Fresh Market Exclusive 3 Pigs Petits Pâtés Truffle & Canard Porto are all-natural, minimally processed and ready to eat. Pâté truffle is a rich creamy mousse with fresh chicken and pork liver. Canard Porto is a smooth and savory mousse made with duck liver, pork and port wine.
If you’re looking for an edible showstopper that comes together quickly for your holiday table—behold the versatile charcuterie board. While they typically consist of a selection of cured meats, European cheeses, dried fruit, nuts and crackers, there are endless ways to customize them to your own taste and whimsy. Here are a few tips for constructing your own board.
Olives: Be sure to swing by our olive bar to add a variety of briny flavors and textures to your board. Choose from mild Castelvetrano, robust Kalamatas, firm Spanish Queen olives or a variety of marinated vegetables.
Surprise & Delight
Make your charcuterie board memorable with fun and creative touches. We gave a few of our cheese displays a seasonal theme.
Candy Cane Caprese
Create a candy cane caprese salad with fresh mozzarella rounds, Roma tomatoes and fragrant basil leaves.
Festive Brie
To make jam-filled brie, use a cookie cutter to cut the shape out of the top of the cheese, then fill the hole with your choice of jam.
Savory “Pinecones”
These fun “pinecones” were constructed with The Fresh Markets pimiento cheese, molded into the shape of a pinecone. Press whole almonds into the cheese until entire “cone” is covered. Sprigs of rosemary at the ends add a fragrant and colorful touch.
Cured Meats: Add variety with the Brooklyn Cured Beef Salami Trio featuring smoked, spicy and Tuscan red wine with fresh herbs.
Fruit: Juicy grapes and sweet dried figs and apricots from our Bulk Department add a sweet note to the salty, briny, herbaceous and rich nibbles on the rest of the plate.
Herbs: Greenery such as fresh basil, rosemary or thyme adds a pleasingly fragrant and colorful touch to the board, especially in spots laden with cured meats and pâté.
Jam: The Fresh Market’s organic fruit jams lend a nice layer of sweetness to a cracker with cheese. And sometimes a cracker spread with jam is a simple joy not to be underrated.

vibrant elegance
Poinsettias adorn our tables, hearths and staircases, adding a vibrant dash of color to any festive setting. In Southern Mexico, where they originated, poinsettias are perennial shrubs that are considered weeds and will grow 10-15 feet in the wild. The flowers are inconspicuous beads within the leaves, which are called bracts. Before European colonization, the Aztecs used the leaves to make reddish-purple dye and sap from the plant to fight fevers, skin conditions and other ailments. Poinsettias became popular in the U.S. through Roberts Poinsett, an American statesman and the first U.S. Ambassador to Mexico. An amateur botanist, he came across the flowers while visiting the Mexican town of Taxco. He sent the plants to his South Carolina greenhouses in 1828 and began sharing them with friends and botanical gardens, springboarding their popularity.
