Grazings Charcuterie Gal

BEST CHARCUTERIE grazings_charcuteriegal

Some artists work in watercolor, pastels or oil paints. The medium of choice of Kailen Boumal—better known as the Grazings Charcuterie Gal (@grazings_charcuteriegal)—is meats and cheeses. “I love creating,” she says. “Charcuterie fulfills this creative void that I don’t get out of my corporate job.” Her first spread was for a friend’s party, and it was a hit. Boumal began to make a name for herself on social media. Indeed, her talents are on full display on her Instagram page: breads, meats, fruits, cheeses, crackers, spreads and so much more, all artfully layered and arranged in a palette that looks (almost) too good to eat.
