Place the softened cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, paprika, garlic powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Stir until the mixture is fully combined and smooth.

Divide the cheese mixture into four equal portions. Roll each portion into a ball shape with your hands.

Sprinkle a light layer of paprika over each ball and roll gently to coat the surface for an orange color.

Insert two pretzel sticks into the top of each ball to act as stems. Place the balls on a serving platter with space between them.

Scatter the round crackers around the cheese balls on the platter. Sprinkle the chopped parsley between the balls to create vine details.
