Crackers

If you're serving cheese and crackers, it's important to have the right crackers. Crackers should be crunchy enough to provide a nice contrast with the softness of cheese, but not so hard that they feel like rocks in your mouth. They should also be salty enough to enhance the flavour of cheese without being overwhelmingly salty.

Crackers are fun for wine and cheese parties because they can be used as small plates for your cheeses and fruits, or served with the wine itself. What’s more, there’s a lot of variety in the types of crackers you choose, from a classic cream cracker to an oatcake. This gives you lots of options when considering what type of crackers to bring along.

Breads

Breads are another great accompaniment to a cheese and wine party, and just like crackers, there are many varieties to consider. A garlic baguette is a great option, although it may be a little strong. Ciabatta is another excellent choice that works really well with many different kinds of cheese. You can get quite creative here, so consider visiting a bakery and asking for their suggestions.

Nuts

Nuts are a great addition to any cheese platter. They add both texture and crunch, which is a nice contrast to the softness of cheese. Plus, if you’re looking for something healthy to eat at your wine and cheese party, nuts are a fantastic choice—they have lots of protein and other nutrients.

However, you should choose your nut varieties carefully. Not all nuts are created equal! Peanuts are probably the most common type of nut used in wine and cheese parties because they're cheap and easy to find in the supermarket. But peanuts aren't necessarily the best choice here: they have an earthy flavour that can overpower some cheeses (especially blue cheeses) if not paired with enough other flavours on the plate; plus they contain too much saturated fat for this type of event (unless you're using them as a garnish on top of something else). If possible avoid using them altogether!

Almonds are another popular choice but again there are better options out there: walnuts or pistachios work better because their rich flavours complement many different kinds of cheeses without overpowering themselves.

Fruits

Fruit is a great addition to a cheese plate. Fruit helps cleanse the palate, making it easier to taste different cheeses and pairings. Fruit can be served in season and should be fresh, ripe, and in peak condition when you bring it over (no mushy grapes or brown bananas). Fruits can also be cut into slices or whole for presentation purposes; depending on how much time you have before your party begins and how long your guests will stay at the table (and thus how long they'll want to eat), it may be best to serve pre-cut fruit so that no one has to spend any time doing anything but enjoying themselves during their visit.

Charcuterie

Charcuterie is a collection of meat products, usually pork or poultry. Most charcuterie is cured (salted or smoked) and/or cooked before being eaten, but some uncooked meats such as sausages are also called charcuterie. So if you’re looking to bring something to a wine and cheese party, consider some cured meats or sausages.
