“Charcuterie Chalets” have been popping up all over social media lately. An article posted on Martha Stewart’s website has home cooks talking about this adorable trend that isn’t exactly new, but seems to be more popular this year.

From savory to sweet, many sites say these impressive looking houses constructed with fresh veggies, cold cuts and cheeses are surprisingly easy to make, with the help of a gingerbread house kit to help set the foundation. Some even make the edible crafts an activity to do with friends over a glass of wine, like nolicluckyfarm on Instagram.
