# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • Zero cooking means you can assemble this while catching up with guests instead of being stuck in the kitchen.
  • Everyone finds something they love, whether they're grazing for vegetables, reaching for chocolate, or sneaking pistachios when nobody's looking.
  • It looks like you spent hours planning when really it took less time than baking a single batch of cookies.
02 -
  • The secret to a board that stays beautiful through a whole party is spacing—don't overcrowd it at the start, even though your instinct might push you to fill every inch.
  • Prep your produce earlier in the day but hold off on final assembly until about thirty minutes before guests arrive, so everything looks dewy and fresh rather than tired and oxidized.
03 -
  • Arrange your board on a large wooden platter or simple white plate rather than anything too ornate—the ingredients should be the stars.
  • Keep extra dips in the refrigerator during the party so you can refresh the bowls without anyone noticing there was ever less than plenty.
