On a vertically-oriented rectangular board, start with a line of colby as the base. Then add lines of blackberries, peppered and Italian salami, Havarti, olives, Calabrese, cheddar, and raspberries with each layer getting more narrow to resemble a Christmas tree.

Add pretzel sticks to the bottom of the tree to resemble a tree trunk.
