'Charcuterie Chalets' are the latest Christmas food trend you have to try!

Say goodbye to gingerbread and cheese boards. - by Olivia Hart

'Charcuterie Chalets' are the latest Christmas food trend you have to try!

Forget gingerbread houses, 'charcuterie chalets' are the latest Christmas food trend taking over this year. 

A DIY savoury take on a sweet tradition, these chalets are made with a biscuit base and a sliced cold meat roof.

To keep it sturdy, you build the house around a cheese ball and use cream cheese to glue it all together.

Rather than making a standard cheese board this Christmas, give this clever hack a go! Take inspiration from these charcuterie chalets.

While everyone decorates in their own style, the common themes have been a twiggy chimney, trees made from rosemary and cottage cheese snow.

This creamery made a Charcuterie Chalet out of cheese, with a pepperoni roof and cabanossi fences. Good enough to live in we think.

When it comes to the finishing touches, the world is your oyster. This user, @thankyoucheese, garnished with pomegranates, broccoli for bushes, candied cranberries, rosemary and a little mozzarella ball snowman.
