Starting assembling your board by filling the ramekins with M&M's, small candies, and if you're adding any dessert dips. Place that on the board.
Add the rest of the ingredient: fruit, cookies, candies, marshmallows, etc
Fill in the gaps by adding M&M's and some small candies where you see gaps to make the board look pretty.

Use the right size board! This is super important because you want your board to look pretty. I like to lay out the packaged ingredients on the board before unwrapping and assembling just to check which board shall I go with.
Colors & textures: When you're building your dessert board, the main thing that you need to keep in mind is how to switch up the colors and textures. Make the board look fun - don't put all the chocolates on one side, mix with fruit, candies, and marshmallows!
Make ahead: You can totally make this 1-2 days ahead, just make sure not to add the fresh fruit (or any fresh ingredients). Wrap it with plastic wrap, and keep it at room temperature until you're ready to serve.
