I work at a place that sells wine and cheese. We've done a few cheese
platters. We'd like to do more. So far, a cheese platter is a few
types of cheese, maybe a blue, a soft, a chevre and something nicely
aged and hard, cut into squares and arranged on a platter with a bunch
of grapes, some green fresh herbs, little toothpicks, etc. In other
words, BORING. We want something gorgeous, wowza, some design element
in the presentation that's unmistakeably ours (though we don't mind
stealing an idea from someone else) and spectacular. Any ideas? We
have access to normal ingredients from the supermarket. Everything on
the platter doesn't have to be edible. It just has to look attractive
and classy.
