Ingredients Steps Notes

Shortcake Charcuterie Board is a delicious Build Your Own Shortcake experience that friends and family will have a ton of fun enjoying! Loaded with fresh fruit, cookies, whipped cream, and cake!

This simple dessert Charcuterie is a fun way to serve classic Strawberry Shortcakes to a big crowd!

The Dessert Of The Summer!

Hold on tight because Summer just got a whole lot more exciting with this Shortcake Charcuterie Board! Kids up to adults will love making their own shortcake exactly the way they like it!

This dessert board is guaranteed to be a hit with the piles of juicy fruit, sweet whipped cream, and soft cakes or cookies! And you’ll love how easy it can be to throw together if you’re in a time crunch!

I’m a big fan of homemade cream biscuits and angel food cake, however, time can certainly get away from any of us! If that’s the case – you can head right to the store and grab what you need to toss onto your board and still wow your guests!

Strawberry Charcuterie Board Ingredients

Give guests the best Build Your Own Shortcake experience by loading up the board with plenty of options! Start by arranging the Sugar Cookies, Angel Food Cake, Vanilla Wafers, Cream Biscuits, and/or Dessert Sponge Cake Cups.

These will be the base that holds the juicy fruit and sweet whipped cream! Now – homemade is definitely the way to my heart! But don’t be afraid to save on time and grab what you need at the store!

As for fruit, use exactly what you like! You could do a heaping bowl of mixed berries with strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries.

Or you could set out smaller bowls of each fruit so that friends and family can just use what they like! Lastly, the whipped cream!

Again, I love the taste of homemade whipped cream but you can also use store-bought. Cool whip and canned whipped cream are always a fan favorite as well.

To finish up the Shortcake Charcuterie Board I tuck in a bowl of powdered sugar. This way everyone can add a sweet sprinkle to their desserts before enjoying them!

How To Make A Strawberry Shortcake Board

  1. Mix your fruit of choice into a bowl and place it on your Charcuterie board.
  2. Arrange the biscuits, angel food cake, vanilla wafers, dessert cups, and/or sugar cookies on the board.

  4. Fill the empty spaces with fresh fruit and serve!

Notes

  • When creating the board, you can add store-bought angel food cake, biscuits, or even glazed donuts to create a delicious shortcake. This can save time in the kitchen but homemade is always my favorite.
  • Are you looking for the perfect cream biscuit? These are delicious and so easy to make.
  • Angel food cake is the perfect summertime cake, which makes this shortcake board perfect.
  • Add all your favorite summertime fruit- Creating a mixed fruit bowl, I add 2 cups of sliced strawberries, ½ cup of blueberries, and 1 tablespoon of sugar.
  • Make your own whipping cream and add your favorite extract to it. You can also use a cool whip as well.
  • Save yourself a little time by picking up a pack of premade sugar cookies from the store. The kids will love making a strawberry shortcake cookie.
  • You can prepare the biscuits and even the fruit bowl the day before if you are running close on time.
