# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It takes ten minutes and makes you look like you've got your life together.
  • There's no way to mess it up—your board is already beautiful before you finish arranging.
  • Everyone finds something they love, which means less food waste and more happy people.
02 -
  • Let cheese sit out for fifteen minutes before serving so the flavors actually wake up—cold cheese tastes like almost nothing.
  • Quality matters more than quantity here; one really good brie beats three mediocre cheeses every time.
03 -
  • Arrange everything the night before but hold off on the apple slices until the last minute—they'll stay crisp and won't brown.
  • Warm your crackers in the oven for two minutes before serving; the difference is small but noticeable, and it makes everything taste fresher.
