1. Start With the Largest Treat
Choose a serving board or platter with a rim. This will allow you to fill your board to the brim and keep small ingredients corralled inside. Start filling the board with your largest, most eye-catching ingredient, we used store-bought pumpkin roll sliced into rounds. Tile it in the center of the board.
2. Add Bowls as Anchors
Add small bowls filled with candies and chocolates as anchor points. Tile seasonal cookies, such as leaf-shaped maple creams around the bowls.

4. Mix in Some Fruit
Be sure to add a fresh bite to the board in the form of apple slices with a bowl of dipping caramel nearby. Dried apple chips also make excellent dippers for the caramel.
