The snackle box has to be one of my favorite things I’ve come across on the internet. It’s exactly what it sounds like: A tackle box filled with all your favorite charcuterie snacks! If you’re unfamiliar with tackle boxes, they’re containers with lots of different small compartments originally meant for sorting and storing all sorts of fishing gear.
In this case, we’re using all those compartments to organize all those cheese board goodies and keep them fresh. Plus, tackle boxes are meant to be taken on the go! Can you say picnic?

The Best Snackle Boxes Containers
All you have to do is search for “tackle boxes” on Amazon and the options are endless. This is the snackle box that I used, but here are a few other options:
- This simple white tackle box
- This classic blue tackle box
- This fun pink snackle box
Just be mindful that tackle boxes are not necessarily food safe (i.e. made for food consumption), so I used deli liners before putting the food into the box.
Snackle Box Ideas for Adults
When it comes to snack boards, I tend to add things that everyone in the fam can enjoy. But if you’re planning an adults-only gathering, here are some of my favorite ideas.
- Swap the mild cheddar for aged cheddar or gouda
- Opt for hard cheeses like manchego
- Add a calabrese salami for some spice!
- Replace the goldfish and Cheez-Its for some more classic accoutrements like Castelvetrano olives, Marcona almonds, or cornichons
- Add in some boozy gummies
- Throw in your favorite jerky!
No matter what you pack or who you’re serving, just make sure to choose items that will survive the heat the best. As in… don’t add chocolate or soft cheeses! And try to keep your snackle box in the shade or a cool environment.

What a great idea – can’t wait to try it!
This looks like a lot of fun
Great idea for a fisherman’s party.
I love your posts and ideas for a charcuterie board, especial the boards with placement guides. However the snackle box has been my biggest hit with the grandkids. I have 6 grandsons who love fishing and snacking! The first one I made was for a birthday present and used all candies. I can see using your recipe how I can sneak in some fruit and protein to send them out to fish through lunch. Thank you for the opportunity to win such a generous giveaway.
So cute! Love the idea and the options.
I’ve made snackle boxes for travel for each person in the car. I can’t wait to try this one when we go camping in a few weeks!
I love this idea and want to try and make it someday. Will order the snackle box!
Love the presentation, bought the storage container. Now to prepare and take to an event with friends.
