Instructions
Prep Your Surface:
Clean your serving board and place a parchment paper layer if desired. Optionally, trace a candy corn triangle to guide your dip layout.
Assemble Dip Layers:
In three small bowls, place the white dip (cream cheese), orange dip (cheddar spread), and yellow dip (hummus). Using a spatula, shape each into triangle sections on the board to resemble a piece of candy corn, with white at the tip, orange in the center, and yellow at the base.
Arrange Dippers Around the Dip:
Place sliced vegetables, pretzels, pita chips, and popcorn around the dip. Try matching dippers by color if possible—yellow dippers near yellow dip, orange near orange, and white near the tip.
Add Finishing Touches:
Use ramekins or small bowls to contain loose items. Place small spoons in each dip section for easy serving.
Serve and Enjoy:
Set out small plates and napkins. Refill dips as needed and enjoy your festive fall appetizer board!
