Featuring a heart-shaped design made with pink frosting, festive sprinkles, mini marshmallows, frosted animal crackers, and fresh strawberries, it combines sweet and fruity flavors with fun textures for an irresistible snack platter.

Ingredients

Frosting & Decorations

  • 16 ounces Pink Frosting
  • 1/4 cup Valentine Sprinkles (red, white, and pink)
  • 1 1/2 cups Mini Marshmallows

Snacks & Fruits

  • 35 Pink and White Frosted Animal Crackers
  • 19 Strawberries, fresh

Instructions

  1. Prepare the piping bag: Insert the decorating tip into your piping bag and snip off the end of the bag to create an opening suitable for piping the frosting.
  2. Fill the piping bag: Scoop the pink frosting inside the piping bag, ensuring it is filled enough to pipe a medium-sized heart on your board.
  3. Create the heart shape: On your charcuterie board, pipe a medium-sized heart shape in the center using the pink frosting as a guide and base for your design.
  4. Add sprinkles: Sprinkle red, white, and pink Valentine sprinkles generously on top of the heart-shaped frosting to add texture and color.
  5. Line with marshmallows: Place mini marshmallows around the outer edge of the frosting heart, creating a soft and sweet border.
  6. Arrange animal crackers: Layer the pink and white frosted animal crackers around the marshmallows, alternating the colors to create a fun pattern that encircles the heart.
  7. Add strawberries: Fill the entire inside area of the heart shape with fresh strawberries. Add additional strawberries around the bottom of the heart and place one strawberry at the top center above the heart for balance and decoration.
  8. Final frosting details: Use the piping bag to add small dots of frosting to any empty spaces left on the board. Top these dots with more Valentine sprinkles to finish the presentation.
  9. Serve and enjoy: Once assembled, your Valentine-themed charcuterie board is ready to impress guests and make a festive centerpiece for any celebration.

Notes

  • Use fresh strawberries for the best taste and appearance; wash and dry them thoroughly before placing.
  • If desired, substitute animal crackers with similarly frosted cookies for variation.
  • The shape can be adjusted to other themes depending on the occasion by piping different outlines using the frosting.
  • Keep the charcuterie board refrigerated if preparing in advance, but bring to room temperature before serving for the best flavor and texture.
