While the humble gingerbread house used to be a Christmas tradition, there's a savoury option taking over the internet.
The charcuterie chalet, which is a house made out of snackable deli treats, seems to be this year's Christmas craze.
Crackers and soft cheese or dips are used to create the
structure while cured meats such as salami can be used to tile the roof.
Mozzarella balls can also be seen as little snowmen.
Everything from rosemary to nuts are then used to decorate the structure, resulting in a mouth-watering savoury house.
