Tips for a Wine and Cheese Party
Gathering the gals for an intimate get-together? Or throwing the bash of the summer? Whether your soiree is small or large, low key or outrageous, nothing entices the ladies like wine and cheese, so stock up and get your game face on. Celebrations.com has fun tips on how to spruce up your wine and cheese party this summer.
First and foremost, cheeses have very distinct tastes and your guests will not be happy spreading Jarlsberg on a cracker when they thought it was Gouda. Label your fromage (ooh, fancy and French for cheese!) to ensure the happiness of your friends (and frenemies)…we don’t want any Real Housewives of New Jersey-type brawls going down. Try adding a label to a toothpick placed in the cheese, or simply set a card in front of the cheese. Get creative and decorate them!
If you are more concerned about the messes your amigas tend to make, then you’ll love this simple solution to eliminate at least some of the leftover chaos. Set out an orange slice to stick used toothpicks into once your friends are all cheesed out. You’ll be thrilled at the lack of random toothpicks you’ll find under your couch the following week. Best of all, the orange aroma is the perfect complement to wine and won’t overpower its (alluring) scent!

Really? An orange slice?
This sounds perfect for my next moms group meeting – we mommies love wine!
I love Chocolate covered fruit, it goes great with Port
Most of my friends were scared to try the Port (dessert wine) until they got to have the fruit
Ok, using the orange for used toothpicks is a really good idea. I will have to see how well it gets used next party!

We always do a appy party and have tons of cheeses its so much fun!
yes, i had one lastnight. my biggest tip would to have some not so strong cheeses so everyone will have some.
Throw some good quality dark chocolate out there with the cheese when serving red wine. The perfect sweet addition!
