Thank you for not deducting the portion you didn't use from the overall costs, that drives me crazy, lol. Both boards look amazing but I do like that you have leftovers with the Aldi board for the same price.
Both boards look amazing. You are an artist. Of course, with Aldi, you can make 2 boards or a double-sized board for 4 people, so it's a better value overall.
I hate when budget sites tell you how much something costs by how much they used. Something that they said cost $2 a serving is actually $5 if you didn't already have the ingredients on hand. Both of those boards look really good.
Amazing things about this video 1. Both boards are priced the same. The high-end board isn't just more expensive or bigger. 2. Tips for getting creative. It's simply about managing the money. 3. NOT deducting the price of leftover portion, cz seriously, I can't buy it for the price of the used portion. 4. A manageable size of the spread. Shows that cheese boards don't need to be humongous. Loved it.
I would eat both, in one setting, LOL. You make this look so easy and you are so creative. Hope you put out more video's than just 2. I am really impressed.
I binged all of your videos! I’m doing a 10 person board/grazing table and I was so nervous but after watching your videos I feel so much for confident! PLEASE keep posting more awesome videos!!!!
Very creative young lady. Both of them are perfect in every way. I love how you got so creative at the expensive store and went for the salad bar! I would never have thought to do that! BRAVO!!!!!
I have to make a charcuterie board for culinary school and I am terrified; I've never made one before, I don't even know what they are to be honest. I stumbled across your channel and I am so glad that I did. You are a great teacher and your boards are beautiful. I'm no longer afraid for this class. I'm confident with what you have shown me, I'll be able to maintain my 4.0 with no problems. Thank you!
I would've never thought of buying just a small package of pistachios... but that's just a great tip to save some bucks! And also, just buying what you will actually need. Awesome! Thank you!
Great ideas. I also am a grower so am able to add herbs and edible flowers for color so I usually opt for the Aldi version of things. Had a client who wanted a much higher very exclusive board and charged $200 to set up and style and she bought all ingredients. Win/win!!
I’ve just started watching your videos. Thank you so much. You are clear, friendly, informative and your boards look amazing. There’s no way I would be able to tell that you bought from Aldi. I appreciate that you said at the start of the video, the boards were for 2 people. I’m always stuck on how much to buy for 10-12 people. Also, it’s stumps me how many varieties of cheeses, variety of meats, as well as crackers that I need to have. Love watching your videos. Keep them coming.🎉🎉
WOW! these are both great. This gives me an idea on budgeting. i get together with a couple friends and it looks as if the budget's usually about $25 for what most ppl bring, so this idea will be perfect! I usually get in the store and start throwing everything in the cart. I'm thinking this and some chips and homemade dip ought to do the trick!
Love both. I would do either. Especially the high end one sometimess just because the cheese is better quality/taste. Or mix the high end with some of the Aldi items.
Both look fantastic, I wouldn’t know the difference between them if you hadn’t told us. Loving how you do the boards. I myself serve everything this style. I make a great Seafood Charcuterie Board and have received a lot of compliments on it. Like that one can be so creative 🦀🦞🦐
Wonderful. WOW you are very very SMART shopper. I appreciate your tips. Thanks again for your advice. Appreciate it very much we are very proud of you 👏. From Afghni families You are the BEST.
Great informative video, well done! Not sure if anyone mentioned this or not but put a towel underneath your cutting board and it'll help it not move around so much on your countertops.
Both boards were really beautifully presented. Congratulations on your first video, it was so helpful in so many ways. Please keep them coming! I have an Aldi close by so will definitely shop there for my next charcuterie presentation.
Very nice! I always struggle with where to get my board items, Its nice to see that you can make a board on a budget! I would like to see a video on what size boards works for different party sizes and where to get them :)
I love your videos! I just found you, and I have learned so much! I'm doing a giant board for my daughters wedding reception in June. Thank you for the great videos!
What beautiful boards! Thank you for the tips. I love charcuterie as an evening meal with a glass of wine. So I will probably finish one board on my own ;).
I love your videos, I hope you continue sharing. I feel I’ve learned so much just from watching how to fold and display the meats. I would love to see a Christmas board if possible. Thank you so much!!!
Very impressive, thank you for sharing your experience and tips. Knowing how to cut and style as well as creating the board is so helpful because it’s pretty intimidating otherwise.
Can you please come up with two boards for Christmas one for kids and one for adults. I'm all new to making them and I want to make them this year for my Christmas party
These were both so beautiful! You are so very talented and I got several ideas from watching you about how to cut and place things. Thanks!!☺️ (I'd eat both....no doubt!)
You are so good at this... I love your channel... I learn so much watching you at work...👌 I'm gana make these boards more ... And you only need a small board or any size... Your the "bomb"😁
New sub here and enjoyed your presentation! Both boards look fantastic and I love your selection of music! Looking forward to seeing more of your creativity. Greetings from Western NY.
I live on Charcuterie boards so I'll eat either one. As long as the grapes are washed. You make lovely arrangements!! One cheese from Aldi that I love is their Applewood Smoked Gruyere. Unfortunately they only sell it for a couple of months during Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Thank you for not deducting the portion you didn't use from the overall costs, that drives me crazy, lol. Both boards look amazing but I do like that you have leftovers with the Aldi board for the same price.
I agree with you. That bothers me too. Good point!
@@figbleucharcuterie9916 Wow they looked amazing I think it be more then enough for at least 3 or 4 people to nibble on
I totally agree!!
Do they also buy the board?

You got this! Share a photo with my on instagram! I would love to see the finished product!
I agree. I actually did a search on how to assemble a charcuterie board . This video is so helpful and thank you.
Very creative young lady. Both of them are perfect in every way. I love how you got so creative at the expensive store and went for the salad bar! I would never have thought to do that! BRAVO!!!!!
They both look fab, you are a great food stylist, liked how you arranged both boards. Hope your business is a whopping success!!!!
Thank you!
Both boards are beautiful, but I like the Aldi's better. You did a great job. I liked that you .over at a quick tempo and didn't drag your feet❤

Went to Aldi. Got 4 cheese blocks, prosciutto and salami. All for $20!!!
I'll try those pita crackers!!
That is just beautiful. Both are delicious looking. I cannot choose.

I love them both! The salad bar idea was great!
Thank you!
You made this easy to reproduce, and affordable. Either board will be a treat!

Can you please make a grazing table for 10 people in a budget.
Love both. I would do either. Especially the high end one sometimess just because the cheese is better quality/taste. Or mix the high end with some of the Aldi items.
Both are very beautiful. Just from in ingredients, I would choose the budget broad.
I came across your video and I'm a new subscriber, thank you so much, for keeping it real and on a budget.
Just what I was looking for since I want to avoid wastage and not spend a bomb!! Thanks! Great video!!

New sub here and enjoyed your presentation! Both boards look fantastic and I love your selection of music! Looking forward to seeing more of your creativity. Greetings from Western NY.
Thank you so much!! I appreciate it
Both boards looked great! We have an Aldi nearby but I've never shopped there. The prices were reasonable. Thanks for the tip!
You never stopped there!?!?! You are going to save a LOT of money :-)
Both look great. As a cheese lover I think I would rather have the budget board since it looked like there was more cheese on that one. lol.
Fair enough! Thanks for watching!
I live on Charcuterie boards so I'll eat either one. As long as the grapes are washed. You make lovely arrangements!!
One cheese from Aldi that I love is their Applewood Smoked Gruyere. Unfortunately they only sell it for a couple of months during Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Of course! No body wants dusty grapes! lol
Both boards are beautiful and I would eat either one.
Thank you!
Thanks so much for the great tips.
Glad it was helpful!
That looks great
