05 - Distribute peeled eggs whole or halved decoratively across the board to balance the display.
06 - Fill remaining spaces with grouped fresh fruits and vegetables, maintaining a visually appealing layout.
07 - Decorate with fresh dill sprigs, parsley, and edible flowers if desired to enhance color and texture.
08 - Offer immediately, allowing guests to mix and match flavors according to preference.
