The platter contains dried apricots (or plums), almonds and dries cherries
(or raisens).
you have 4 types of cheeses
the dark one makes me think of gjetost. The biggest looks like a type of
tilsiter.
The small one havarti, gouda, or some form of goat cheese.
The slices look to be cheddar.
Now the question is would any of these have been around in the time frame of
the painting? (assuming my thought of the cheeses were correct)

It's called cheeses, almonds, cracknels, at one place.
