If you have to organize a party in a hurry and at short notice, or otherwise you just want a super easy but still impressive serving for a small Christmas or mulled wine party table, try this cheese tower.
The cheese tower can be done even by an inexperienced cook and is guaranteed to disappear into the mouths of the guests of the time unit. In addition, the cheese tower with side dishes makes a really wonderful decoration and an eye-catcher for the festive table. You can serve crackers, nuts, grapes, jam or whatever you want as side dishes for the cheeses.
Thanks to its gourmet appearance, the cheese tower also works perfectly on the Christmas appetizer table or, for example, as a substitute for a cheese tray, and it is not ashamed at all on the New Year’s party table.
Juustotorni’s recipe is a food influencer and author by Peggy Thomas handwriting, and it was photographed for the Joulun herkut magazine by Kukkahuone Linnea’s entrepreneur Heidi Saarinen in the gazebo in the garden.
You can read more about both Thomas’s and Saarinen’s Christmas party and the serving of the Christmas table in the new Jouluin herkut special magazine. Naturally, the magazine contains plenty of salty and sweet treats for the festive moments at the end of the year.

1. Choose cheese discs of different sizes and flavors depending on the number of eaters. Assemble the cheeses into a tower according to size, so that the bottom disk is the largest and the top disk is the smallest.
2. It is recommended to assemble the cheese tower about an hour before serving, when the aromas of the cheeses will come out better.
3. Decorate the tower with, for example, fresh herbs, nuts and fruits.
