Creating a cheesecake toppings board is a simple process. Follow these steps to assemble your masterpiece:

1. Choose Your Base: Start with a classic cheesecake as your base. You can use a round or square cheesecake, depending on your preference.

2. Select a Platter: Choose a large serving platter or wooden board that will accommodate all your toppings.

3. Arrange the Cheesecake: Place the cheesecake in the center of the platter. Make sure it’s cooled and set.

4. Prepare the Toppings: Wash and slice your fresh fruits. If using nuts or cookies, crush or chop them into bite-sized pieces.

5. Add Sauces: In small bowls, pour the chocolate and caramel sauces. Place these bowls on the platter for easy access.

6. Arrange the Toppings: Start placing the fruits, nuts, and other toppings around the cheesecake. Be creative with your arrangement for a visually appealing look.

7. Add Whipped Cream: If desired, add dollops of whipped cream on top of the cheesecake or place it in a bowl for guests to add.

8. Garnish: Sprinkle shredded coconut, mini chocolate chips, or sprinkles over the toppings for a colorful finish.

9. Serve Immediately: Once everything is arranged, serve the cheesecake toppings board right away to enjoy the freshness of the ingredients.

10. Encourage Creativity: Invite your guests to customize their cheesecake slices with their favorite toppings for a fun experience.
