Build the Brunch Board She Deserves: A Mother's Day Coffee & Charcuterie Moment

There’s something magical about mornings with mom—especially when there’s coffee brewing, laughter flowing, and a brunch board built with love. This Mother’s Day, skip the crowded restaurants and create a cozy, café-style spread at home that shows her just how much she means to you. We’re sharing an easy (and seriously beautiful) idea for a DIY brunch board featuring Ferris snacks and a specialty coffee that celebrates women around the world.

Coffee First, Always

Before you start building your board, start your morning with something warm and intentional: Café Femenino Colombia. This specialty coffee is more than just a morning ritual—it’s sourced from women producers and supports gender equity in the coffee industry. It’s bold, smooth, and brewed with purpose. A perfect pairing for the woman who’s brewed a whole lot of love into your life.

How to Build a Brunch Charcuterie Board

This isn’t your typical meat-and-cheese board. Think of it as a brunchy blend of sweet, savory, and satisfying. Here’s what to grab:

  • Nuts – Salted almonds, cashews, or pistachios for crunch and balance. Our selection of NUTS are available both roasted salted and raw- grab some of both to create variety. We're big fans of our Jumbo Cashews!

  • Dried fruits – Apricots, mango, or cranberries for natural sweetness and color. Our selection of dried fruits is an easy solution!

  • Chocolates – A little indulgence is a must—think chocolate-covered espresso beans or dark chocolate almonds. Choose from milk, dark, or white chocolate goodies in our collection of sweets

  • Baked goods – Be sure to stop by the store and add some mini croissants, banana bread slices, or muffins.

  • Cheese & extras – Goat cheese, honeycomb, or jam to level things up and to use on your baked goods!

Arrange everything on a wooden board or platter, starting with bowls for small snacks, then layer in the color and texture.

Make It Meaningful

This isn’t just about the food—it’s about the moment. Light a candle, pour that cup of coffee, play a nostalgic playlist, and toast to all the little things she’s done for you over the years. Share memories. Laugh. Snap a photo together. One idea we've seen lately is adding framed pictures from childhood on the board- what a great conversation starter, too! 

Whether you’re celebrating your mom, a mother-figure, or gathering with friends for a Galentine-style brunch, build it with intention—and with Ferris. Grab your snacks, pick up a bag of Café Femenino, and create a Mother’s Day she’ll never forget!
