Build a Better Board

Discover New Canaan Farms cheese and charcuterie pairings, created around some of our favorite flavor themes. From Texas-inspired boards to Italian and Spanish pairings, we’ve matched our handcrafted specialties with cheeses and meats that bring out the best in every flavor.

Soft & Creamy

Creamy cheeses are made for a little sweet, tart or spicy contrast. Pair Brie, Camembert and triple crème cheeses with rich fruit flavors and a hint of pepper, then add smoked turkey, ribbons of prosciutto, fresh pear slices and a handful of toasted pecans for an easy, elegant board.

Bold & Blue

Bold blue cheeses pair beautifully with deep red fruit flavors and a little heat. Try Stilton, Gorgonzola or Roquefort with blackberry, plum or raspberry jalapeño jam, then add prosciutto or speck, fresh figs and toasted walnuts for a rich, savory-sweet board.

Spanish-Inspired

Build a Spanish-inspired board around nutty Manchego and Mahón cheeses, salty Jamón Serrano and spicy chorizo. Add Marcona almonds, then bring in Lemon Fig Jam, Black Olive Tapenade and a savory artichoke spread for just the right mix of sweet, briny and rich flavors.

Italian Antipasto

For an Italian-inspired antipasto board, combine Parmesan, aged provolone and mozzarella or burrata with prosciutto, soppressata and salami. Add marinated artichokes and roasted red peppers, then pair with Fredericksburg Peach Jam for a sweet counterpoint, plus Green Olive Tapenade and Sun-Dried Tomato & Basil Mustard for classic Italian flavor.
