Fold the salami in half, and then fold it again.
Layer the salami pieces on top of each other in a long row and arrange them along the rounded edge of a chopping board or platter.
Place the mozzarella balls above the salami in a U-shape.
Now, layer the mini rice cakes on top of each other to make Santa's beard and place them inside the bocconcini frame (also in a U-shape).
Arrange the mozzarella ball and cherry tomato hat right above the rice cakes. I used 20 tomatoes for this in total. Be sure to place them with the flatter side down, so they don't roll around.
To make the eyes you need two slices of bocconcini.
Use the small round cookie cutter to shape the mozzarella eyes.
Top with the tips of two black olives.
Make the highlight in the eyes using a metal straw and bocconcini.
Arrange the eyes in between the rice cakes, and use a cherry tomato for the nose.
Finish off with fresh basil leaves.
Serve.
