Instructions
- Prepare the cones: Ensure the waffle cones are clean and dry. If desired, decorate the rims with holiday sprinkles or edible glitter by lightly brushing the edges with honey and dipping.
- Assemble the charcuterie fillings: Slice cheeses into small cubes. Roll meat slices if needed. Wash and prepare fruits.
- Layer the ingredients: Starting from the bottom of each cone, layer in slices of prosciutto and soppressata, cubed cheeses, olives, cherry tomatoes, and grapes.
- Add dips: Place small dollops of Dijon mustard, honey, and fig jam in separate cones or spoons for serving alongside.

- Enjoy: Let guests grab and go, building their own combinations in the cones.
Notes
These cones can be customized with your favorite charcuterie items. For a vegan option, substitute meats with additional cheeses or roasted vegetables. Cones may soften if prepared too far in advance; assemble just before serving for best texture.
