Unwrap the brie cheese carefully to avoid tearing the outer casing.

Place the brie cheese on a rimmed baking sheet.

Bake the brie in the oven for about 15 minutes until it is nice and gooey.

While the brie is baking, prepare your serving platter.

Use a bowl upside down as a placeholder for the brie on the platter.

Arrange fresh fruits like figs, strawberries, blackberries, grapes, pears, and apples around the platter.

Add sprigs of rosemary for decoration.

Slice the strawberries to make them more presentable on the platter.

Gather a variety of crackers to serve with the brie.

Once the timer goes off, check the brie; it should be soft but not oozing if intact.

Remove the bowl from the platter and place the baked brie in the center.

Drizzle honey over the baked brie before serving.

Provide a cheese knife for guests to serve themselves.
