It doesn’t get more fun than a hot chocolate charcuterie board! It is filled with all of the delicious toppings and mix-ins that any hot chocolate lover will go crazy for!
Why Make a Hot Chocolate Charcuterie?
Before making this hot cocoa board, you must learn to say Charcuterie. It is pronounced shar-koo-tuh-ree. These boards are traditionally made with meats and cheeses but have become very popular over the years to involve treats, fruits, vegetables, and crackers. Basically, you can put anything you want on them, and it becomes a giant, themed snack board that looks stunning.
I love a charcuterie board for any occasion! If you are looking for more ideas to arrange a charcuterie board, then check out this dessert board, this classic board, or this themed one!
Ingredients to Make a Hot Chocolate Charcuterie
The ideas that I came up with for this hot chocolate board are not where it ends! Whatever you love to put in your hot chocolate, or even the flavors of your hot chocolate mix, can be changed! Or, make this board even bigger and add more to it!
- Hot Chocolate Mix
- Large Marshmallows
- Mini Marshmallows
- Milk Chocolate Chips
- Chocolate Drops
- Chocolate covered pretzels
- White Chocolate Pretzel Sticks
- Peppermint Meringues

I only used one bowl of hot chocolate mix on the board, but you could do a couple to add variety. I also did a few homemade things, but the great thing about this board is that everything can be store-bought! Gather up your list of ingredients and grab them all at the store. Put this together for a fun display of these delicious mix-ins!

Make one for meats and cheese, one for treats, and another one for fruits or veggies. Then you can have even more options for your guests!
