In a bowl, combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and pesto. Cover and refrigerate about 4 hours or until firm enough to shape.

Divide mixture in half and place one a sheet of plastic wrap. Loosely cover with the plastic wrap and shape each half into cone shape to look like a pine tree.

At this point, you can wrap each tree, label and freeze up to 1 month. Twelve hours before serving, remove trees from freezer. Thaw in wrapper in refrigerator. Or place in the refrigerator again to firm up.

Just before serving, roll trees in parsley, pressing it evenly onto trees. Place almond slices into trees in groups of 3. Press bell pepper pieces onto trees for ornaments. Serve with crackers. Makes 2 cheese balls.
