Pre-assembled, individual servings of curated meats, cheeses, and accompaniments provided by local businesses for events or gatherings are increasing in popularity. These conveniently portioned offerings often include items such as salami, prosciutto, cheddar, brie, olives, grapes, and crackers, all arranged in a portable, single-serving container.
The appeal of seeking these localized catering options lies in their ease of service, hygienic individual presentation, and cost-effectiveness compared to traditional larger charcuterie boards. The convenience of these offerings simplifies event planning and management while providing a sophisticated, customizable culinary experience. The historical precedent of individually portioned food items for hygiene and ease of distribution also contributes to the enduring demand for this catering style.
