Autumn bites: little comforts for rainy days

Our Favorite Autumn Snacks 

Cheese Cookies with Aged Cheese 

Anyone who has ever tasted a freshly baked cheese cookie knows: you can't stop at just one. These cheese cookies with aged cheese are crispy, salty, and full of flavor. The aged cheese gives them that deep, savory bite that pairs perfectly with a glass of wine or a nice beer.  

Tip: make some extra, because they disappear faster than you think. 

Extra Festive Luxury Cheese Platter 

An autumn platter of snacks isn't complete without a mix of cheeses. The extra festive luxury cheese platter combines various flavors, from creamy and mild to spicy and aromatic. Arrange everything playfully with grapes, figs, nuts, and a bit of honey or another autumn treat ;). Such a platter not only looks stunning, but it’s also the perfect snack for a cozy evening or a relaxed get-together.  

Boo-schetta: Autumn Snack with a Twist 

For those who enjoy a bit of humor on the table: Boo-schetta. A nod to Halloween, but mainly a perfect combination of crispy bread, pumpkin cheese, and fresh tomato tapenade. Great as a snack at a gathering or as an amuse for an autumn dinner. 

Spicy Cheese Platter 

If you like a little kick, the spicy cheese platter is for you. The combination of flavorful cheeses, olives, and bread chips creates a perfect balance between savory, salty, and spicy. Serve it with a small glass of red wine or a dark autumn beer! 

Mini Spring Rolls with Pesto Cheese 

Autumn snacks don’t always have to be heavy. These mini spring rolls with pesto cheese are light, crispy, and filled with savory pesto cheese. Ideal as a warm snack from the oven or as part of a larger snack platter. Best of all: they’re ready in just fifteen minutes. 

Autumn Gathering Inspiration 

Wine Pearls with Cheese 

Want to try something special? Sprinkle some wine pearls over your cheese platter. The combination of three wine pearl flavors (white, rosé, and red) gives your snacks a luxurious, fruity twist. The red wine pearls go well with aged cheeses, while the white ones pair fresh with goat or sheep cheeses. 

They look like small shiny beads but burst open with a subtle wine flavor with your favorite cheese. This is a real conversation starter at your gathering! 

Organic Merlot 

For those who prefer a glass poured, the Henri Willig Organic Merlot is perfect. Soft, round, and full of flavor, with just enough depth to complement the taste of spicy or truffle cheese. Serve slightly chilled with cheese cookies or bruschettas with portobello and truffle cheese for a truly indulgent evening. 

Sparkling Wine Gift 

If you really want to impress, the Sparkling Wine Cheese Gift is a celebration in itself. A sparkling wine paired with cheeses, garlic pearls, and crackers. Serve this package as the main snack for your autumn gathering: one look at the table, and everyone knows it’s going to be a great evening. 

How to Assemble Your Autumn Snack Platter 

A good autumn snack (and drinks, of course) platter is all about balance. Combine warm snacks with cold elements, crispy bites with creamy cheeses, and add a touch of sweetness for contrast. A few combinations that always work are: 

- Cheese cookies with red wine pearls: salty and fruity at the same time. 

- Boo-schetta with sparkling wine: fresh, light, and playful. 

- Spicy cheese platter with Merlot: full and spicy, a true autumn classic. 

- Mini spring rolls with pesto cheese alongside white wine pearls: savory with a fresh twist.
