Assembling Your Board:
The only requirement to assemble a Drinking Chocolate Board is to have fun! But to start, we usually set the larger ingredients on our board. We separate out the chocolate flavors and arrange around the marshmallows. After placing the chocolate, we add the garnishes like chocolate dipped candied oranges, fresh raspberries, and caramel candies.
