The Brisbane mum shared that she gives this classic festive snack a spin by serving deli, fruits, and other fresh ingredients in a plastic wine glass instead of the traditional charcuterie board, noting that each guest can have their own individual cup instead of sharing from one plate or board.
She also said that this could be the perfect way to enjoy this Christmas staple, especially now that threats from COVID force us to keep our distance from each other.

The blogger said: 'I was told this is a game-changer when it comes to platters.'
So, what are the ingredients in this entertaining Christmas charcuterie cup?
Cheree listed the ingredients for her entertaining Christmas charcuterie cup as follows:
- Cheese
- Crackers
- Pretzels
- Blueberries
- Strawberries
- Fresh rosemary
- Cherries
- Salami
- Salted pistachios
- Stuffed olives
- Chocolate Fingers
- Plastic wine glasses
- Bamboo sticks
She said that she picks up all of the ingredients, as well as the plastic wine cups, at Woolworths.
The blogger then wrote that she assembles the cups by layering the dry ingredients — including nuts, crackers, and pretzels — at the bottom first.
Next, she added the taller ingredients — such as the chocolate fingers — to the cup to create a more layered look. Then she continued adding more layers of ingredients toward the front of the cup to finish.
If some of the ingredients do not suit your taste, don't worry, the blogger advised that you don't need to follow her ingredients as you can customise each cup for your guests.

Cheree also suggested that the cups should be served straight away to ensure absolute freshness.
