This Summer in August we hosted our first virtual event, (oh quarantine!) - a demo/workshop with Rachael from Dream Boards Co.

The shopping list for our brunch board workshop featured mini bagels and croissants, two types of cheese including triple creme brie, hand rolled everything but the bagel seasoned goat cheese, a soppressata rose, fresh seasonal fruit, honey walnuts, honey and pansies.

In the demo we were taught:

The 5 basic steps of building a board, tips on cutting goat cheese
How to create your own seasoned goat cheese (demo with seasoning)
How to create movement on your boards, how to make a salami rose
The different kinds of brie, fruit currently in season
How final touches like edible flowers and nuts can elevate your boards and what edible flowers are best.

This workshop was so much fun. My key take aways were learning how to make a salami rose and just when you think you’re done with your board keep layering.

Here’s some photos of my final brunch board and some behind the scenes of the demo.
