The 21st century provides a unique opportunity to break the rules. Traditionally, at weddings, it was customary for the bride to choose a bouquet of roses. Subsequently, it became possible to use other colors and in the end we came to the conclusion that a girl can choose a bouquet of ribbons and even sweets as a wedding accessory. Why not, especially if the young lady has a terrible sweet tooth.
Wedding bouquets made from sweets are so good that from afar it is quite difficult to determine what is actually in the bride’s hands. This accessory promises a girl a sweet and happy family life.
In addition, a bouquet of sweets can be part of a gift from guests. On the one hand, this is very original. On the other hand, it is useful. Well, what married couple would refuse to sweeten their lives?
Bouquet of sweets in a basket - master class
First we need to make a foundation for the flowers. We cut out a blank from foam plastic to fill the space as much as possible. But it’s worth leaving free space on all sides for sisal.
Now all the elements need to be wrapped in corrugated paper. Cut a long strip of blue corrugated paper so that the folds are horizontal in relation to you. This way we will cut the paper for all the elements of the flower, since it is necessary for it to stretch. If you cut it differently, it will not take the desired shape. We fasten one end of the paper tape at the beginning of the handle and wrap it so that there are no folds until the second end, gradually stretching and tightening the paper.
From blue paper we cut out a strip of such a size that it completely covers half of the outer and inner parts of the basket, leaving allowances that will go to the bottom. We begin to stretch the paper from one edge. We leave the second edge in a fold, but the paper should be completely stretched. We completely wrap the basket in paper, leaving allowances to glue it to the bottom.
Fasten the second edge and glue the seam allowances at the bottom.
Forming beautiful folds of paper, glue its edges to the inner bottom of the basket. This will be very easy to do, since the paper allows you to do whatever you want with it.
We wrap the foam block in blue corrugated paper and glue it to the bottom with a very thick layer of glue. You need to press it tightly and fix it for a few seconds, since there will be flowers in this block and it must withstand such weight so that the basket does not turn over.
It turns out this blue basket.
Now let's start making flowers from candies and paper. There will be 13 flowers in this bouquet. You can do more or less. It all depends on the desire, time and size of the basket. We will insert the sharp end of the wooden stick into the foam, and glue the blunt end to the candies.
Eight colors will be on sticks of standard height, two sticks for two colors need to be cut from the blunt side by 5 cm, and sticks for three more colors will be cut by 10 cm. Apply hot-melt glue to the blunt end and the stick itself and immediately fix it in the middle of the candy tail end-to-end so that the candy does not dangle.
From blue paper we cut 13 rectangles measuring 6x8 cm. The size depends on the diameter of the candies, so the piece should completely envelop the candy. Place the candy with the stick on the rectangle, stepping back a couple of millimeters from the edge. Glue the edges of the rectangle. Apply glue inside to the tail and squeeze the lower part until a bud forms. We stretch the top edge of the paper along its entire length. We wrap 12 more candies like this.
The middle is done and we move on to the formation of the bud. The flower will consist of 9 petals of the same size and shape. We cut out 113 rectangles measuring 2.5x8 cm from white corrugated paper. We form each rectangle into a petal, cutting off the corners on all sides. To make the flower voluminous, stretch the middle of each petal with your fingers. This preparatory process takes a fair amount of time, but collecting the petals together will be much faster.
The flower consists of three layers, each with three petals. First we glue the first three, completely enveloping the surface of the candy with them, and then the other three between them, etc.
Let's make green leaves for the buds. Using a zigzag, we cut a strip of green corrugated paper 10 cm wide. The width of the base of one triangle should be no more than 2 cm. The indentation from the edge should be the same size.
We twist the ends with two fingers, and stretch the middle in the same way as we stretched the petals.
Glue the leaves, hiding the edge of the white crepe paper.
Cut a strip of green paper, stretch it and attach one end to the edge of the bud. First, we overlap all the edges of the previous layers, gluing the strip with a gun. Next, simply wrap the stick tightly with paper, leaving about 8 cm of the end free. Secure the paper with glue.
The results are such delicate and neat flowers.
We insert flowers from corrugated paper and candies into the foam symmetrically. First, insert 6 large flowers in two rows (three on one and the other side of the handle). We insert flowers with shorter stems into the middle, and insert flowers with the shortest ones at the edges. We also insert bunches of thin artificial leaves and distribute them among the flowers to fill the space inside.
We tie bows from white satin ribbon on both sides of the handle and fill the inner space with pink sisal. You can apply a little glue to the bottom to fix it.
We receive a festive and elegant wedding gift - a bouquet of sweets in a basket. This bouquet can also be given for a birthday.
Charming and simplest sweet bouquet
In the process of making a gift you will need the following materials:
- skewers and toothpicks,
- a piece of foam plastic as a base,
- sheets of cardboard for stems,
- tape and a glue gun (this is much more convenient than using regular office glue).
- You can use white paper.
So, we make the frame in this way: we roll a sheet of cardboard into a tube and glue it. We use a piece of foam plastic to form the head of the flower. We will then attach the petals to it. We cover the foam with paper and place it on a cardboard tube. We stick skewers, pre-lubricated with glue, into the foam. You can first attach the buds to the skewers, and then stick them into the head.
Next, take cardboard, cut out circles measuring 25 centimeters and make holes in them in the middle. We wrap it with ribbons made of satin fabrics or braid with a colorful pattern. A pipe made of nondescript cardboard must be wrapped in colored corrugated paper to make the appearance more presentable.
We glue the cardboard circles to the foam.
Important!!! It needs to be done efficiently, because the entire structure will be attached to it.
Now we put a transparent bag over the candy, which you can make yourself or don’t bother and buy a pack of bags right away at a jewelry store. If you decide to save money, you can take regular bags and fasten them with the end of a hot knife.
It’s easier with rafaels: we string them on toothpicks and tie them with ribbons at the base. All that remains is to assemble and decorate the bouquet. So, we place the toothpicks with candies close to each other in the foam.
Now let's decorate everything with paper flowers, ribbons, rhinestones, beads and other accessories. It is ideal to make flowers from fabric: take a satin ribbon (preferably as wide as possible), cut out circles, and sew a pearl into the center of the flower. Use a lighter to trim the edges to prevent the fabric from unraveling.
Another great idea would be to lightly spray the bouquet with the girl’s perfume or drop some aromatic oils onto the cardboard stem of the bouquet. Carefully! The main thing is moderation, otherwise the sweets will taste like perfume, not chocolate.
Ideas for decorating a candy composition
DIY wedding bouquet made from sweets.
A wedding bouquet of sweets definitely has its own charm and will interest everyone. A bride’s wedding accessory made from delicious sweets is a wonderful solution, since it can surprise guests and delight the bride and groom. Young ladies are often allergic to certain types of plants, but here you have the opportunity to avoid unpleasant situations and still have a beautiful flower arrangement in your hands.
There are a large number of varieties of candy compositions. They will differ in several parameters. Firstly, it is the filling itself. This way you can make a mono bouquet of raffaello or ferero, or combine several types of sweets at once. Secondly, there will be a difference in the form of compositions.
Basket of sweets with flowers as a gift
This can be either a beautiful accessory for the bride or a gift from guests. If the bride chooses this type of bouquet, then she should take care of its size. Ideally, stick to lightweight compositions, since you will have to walk with them all day. Guests can please the young ones with a larger basket.
In addition to sweets, you can put an envelope with money inside, which will be the main wedding gift. For some time, the basket can stand to please the husband and wife, then they can unwrap the sweets and once again remember over a cup of tea who gave them to them.
Such an unusual gift will delight both the bride with a sweet tooth and the groom. After all, it is unusual and original.
The ideal combination would be white, lilac and purple. When positioned correctly, they can create a beautiful ombre style.
DIY heart-shaped compositions
Wedding gift made from candy.
Beautiful bouquets of sweets for a wedding with your own hands - is it possible? This is a more complex and romantic version of congratulations. The candies are arranged in such a way that they ultimately give birth to a beautiful and bright heart. They are decorated with various materials. Basically it is corrugated paper, from which a large number of different types of flowers are successfully produced.
By changing the layout, you can end up with interesting compositional solutions. For example, the heart may remain empty inside. Or there is the opportunity to completely fill it with candies. An option made of red and white flowers with gold candies inside will look creative.
The sweetness will be presented in the form of an inflorescence that emerges so beautifully from under the delicate petals
Pay attention to the options in which the treats are placed in a heart-shaped box and a little greenery is added. Then the resulting design solution will look natural, as if representing beautiful flowers, gently packaged in a stylish box
Decorating rings with candies
With the help of sweet tooth treats, you can create original wedding rings. The idea was born in the West and quickly strengthened in our country. Such an accessory can be placed at home as a reminder of the celebration, or you can take it apart at a wedding, giving a piece of yourself to every guest who comes.
Wedding rings made from sweets will give spouses a happy family life without quarrels and with only sweets. It would be useful to decorate the rings with doves or swans as the main symbols of fidelity and love.
Wedding ship
A wedding basket of sweets is an original gift for newlyweds. A boat with a bride and groom sets off on the waves of a happy family life. These are the words most often pronounced when registering at the registry office. Why not give the young couple not a simple boat, but a real ship made entirely of sweets. With such a durable and reliable frigate, the family will not get lost or crash on the rocks.
Such a ship is decorated with artificial flowers in delicate shades. As a rule, such a gift will please all family members for a long time. Make sure that after the candies are eaten, the gift does not lose its original appearance. Therefore, it is better to make additional flowers or other decorations so that the ship does not become empty and brings joy to the family for many years.
Swans composition
Swans are a native Russian symbol of love and fidelity. It is believed that a swan is a bird that loves once and for life. By presenting a composition of swans, you can bring fidelity, reliability, love, understanding and respect to the family. As a rule, birds are traditionally made in different colors: black and white. Swans' feathers represent candy.
Think about what you will use to hand the birds over. It is better to prepare a blue tray for them in advance, which will represent the lake and their habitat.
Materials and tools
Before starting the work process, it is recommended to prepare all materials. To create a beautiful bouquet of sweets, you need to have a good mood and a little imagination.
Bright packaging of sweets, decorative paper and satin ribbons will help turn your ideas into reality.
In addition to colorful decorations, it is recommended to prepare the following list of tools and materials:
- confectionery (sweets, marshmallows);
- a set of multi-colored corrugated paper;
- foil;
- wrapping paper;
- wooden skewers;
- polystyrene foam for fixing products;
- scotch;
- decorative vase, flower pot;
- satin ribbons of different sizes;
- wire of various diameters;
- scissors;
- pliers;
- glue;
- glue gun
Additional decorations can become a kind of highlight in the bouquet.
The original use of natural materials can highlight your refined taste. For small children, it is recommended to add soft toys. They will be the main element in the composition.
A glue gun helps to secure some parts together. The main requirement when creating a sweet bouquet of candies is that the elements are correctly selected. There should be no unnecessary decorative elements here.
Beautiful bouquet of sweets and corrugated paper in a basket
To make it more interesting, you can arrange the flowers in a basket and it will turn out to be a real composition, like in those florist shops. Such a gift will make the birthday boy crazy happy. I suggest, in order to avoid repetition, to do the following work in the form of a sunflower.
We will need:
- any candy, so that the candy wrappers are black or dark blue, so they will act as seeds
- double sided tape
- heat gun
- scissors
- corrugated paper two colors
- foam for base
- green mesh or organza
- toothpicks
Stages:
1. Prepare all the necessary materials for the upcoming work.
2. From orange-yellow paper, cut out a strip 5 cm wide or a little more, depending on your idea and imagination. Also decide on the length yourself, depending on the diameter of the base, but it should be enough for three revolutions around its axis.
The base should be round in shape, the height should also be arbitrary, but not lower than 5 cm. Glue the top of the base with a glue gun with black or dark green paper.
3. Then wrap it around the diameter with yellow corrugation. Also fix it with glue from a gun.
4. Then use scissors to make cuts on the yellow paper to create petals. And take another green ribbon and also make leaves on it, as shown below:
Glue the green corrugation to the workpiece. And with your fingers, slightly squeeze out a semi-circular shape, like a depression, so that the craft looks more voluminous.
5. Attach the sweets with double-sided tape so that they can be easily torn off and eaten later.
6. Now make another frame around the edge in the form of green petals. To do this, glue pieces of green mesh material onto a toothpick. The blanks look like darts. Cut the organza into small squares and then fold each square in half and glue it to the stick.
7. So, insert the pounds along the edge of the work. They will decorate your sunflower. And also add a satin ribbon and add any decorations, rhinestones or puff pastry souvenirs in the form of a butterfly or ladybug at your discretion.
Here’s another wonderful idea for you, really, the author is great, I really like it!
Methods for assembling sweet buds
Working with crepe has a number of advantages, and one of them is the ease of assembling parts. There are several options for the master:
- Using a topstitch stitch. A long strip of paper is prepared from the crepe and a stitch is laid in the center. The blank is wrapped around the candy, forming a bud.
- Stitching petals around the surprise.
- Sewing the petals to the base (in the form of a cardboard circle or felt pillow) to which the candy is glued.
Sometimes in practice there are other methods: mounting on foam plastic, screeding with adhesive tape.

DIY candy gift
The next step is the selection of materials
Since the creation will be based on candies, the greatest attention will need to be paid to them. In addition to appearance, take an interest in taste
In order for the candies to look stylish and organic, it is necessary to have a very clear idea of what the surprise will be like before purchasing them. Here are some of the most common shapes for candy compositions.
Basket. You can put both fresh flowers in the basket in addition to sweets, and artificial ones, made yourself from corrugated paper, with centers made of round sweets.
Sweet compositions - analyze what we want to get
The most important thing is to determine which flower candies will be used. Secondly, you need to decide what design to give - whether it will be a bouquet wrapped in paper for gifts, or a composition placed in a basket. It is better to buy flowers for future work in a supermarket - there is more choice and the price is not as high as in specialized stores.
You need to acquire not only the girl’s favorite candies, but also purchase additional decor in the form of ribbons and beads. If the bouquet is also decorated with small toys, then it will be truly attractive to a dear person. The above can be easily found in a special sewing store.
Also for the bouquet you will need corrugated paper, which is sold in a craft store or in flower stalls. Have you decided to make an unusual bouquet? Then you need a basket. A small box will also work. Don't forget the glue! It is needed in any version. If this is your first job, then a simple option would be to make a standard bouquet, because it is easy to make and is ideal for beginners.
Types of candy compositions
The art of making bouquets of sweets is sweet design, one of the most famous areas of floristry. The types of sweet compositions are not much different from compositions made from fresh flowers.
Decorative
Bold and non-standard solutions are welcome:
- contrasting colors;
- bright rich shades;
- decorative inserts made of ribbons, artificial fruits, beads, butterflies, dragonflies;
- pine cones, nuts, Christmas tree decorations, cinnamon sticks, anise stars, tangerines are attached to winter bouquets;
- for a wedding celebration, plaster figurines of doves and angels are placed in the composition;
- They use finishing materials of different textures: felt, floral organza, lace.
Massive
These are voluminous and lush compositions. Contrast and variety of shades are rarely used. Works in the same color scheme look very gentle. Flowers are arranged tightly to each other. The bouquet looks like a big fluffy hat. Decorative elements are not used. The composition should look natural. All the beauty is in the volume and slight carelessness created by the hands of a master. This bouquet is a great gift for any occasion. To create a composition, a basket, a hat box, or a porta bouquet are suitable.
Vegetative
Bouquets are decorated with natural materials. Use:
- driftwood and twigs;
- tree bark;
- moss;
- dried fruits;
- dried flowers;
- nuts;
- shells and stones;
- seeds.
Linear
In this type of composition, plants of a strictly defined length are used, which are placed both horizontally and vertically at a certain angle. There are works in the shape of a crescent, an asymmetrical triangle, and bouquets in the shape of the letter S. The basis for such compositions is low wicker baskets-bread bins, decorative plates, and vases. Girls often order a cascading bouquet for a wedding, which always emphasizes the beauty of the wedding dress. A handmade cascading bouquet for the bride is formed on a porta bouquet.
The shapes of candy compositions and bouquets are:
- round;
- triangular;
- square;
- cone-shaped;
- symmetrical and asymmetrical;
- one-sided, where a distinction is made between the front and “rear” parts.
Decorative compositions can have any shape. There are sweet bouquets in the shape of hearts, balloons, ships, houses, butterflies, animals, and musical instruments. Having decided on the type of bouquet, you can make a purchase.
Don't rush to buy a gift online. You can order work from a famous suite designer, but there is no guarantee that the post office or courier service will deliver your order in proper form: candy arrangements are a very fragile thing. You can buy a sweet bouquet in your city. Check out pastry shops, handmade gift studios, and florist shops.
DIY candy bouquet for beginners
Any person will like such a surprise, especially girls or women. You can even just come to visit with such beauty. And the one for whom such a thing was intended will only be happy. I suggest that at the very beginning we disassemble the craft in the form of a bouquet of flowers in its simplest form.
As is probably tradition, most of us love to give roses, but I want to suggest that you first learn how to make snowdrops. They look very cute and gentle, and if suddenly you don’t know what to please your loved ones, then here’s an idea for you. It will fit perfectly if it’s spring and you really want warmth and the first flowers. It will also be a nice gift for Teacher’s or Educator’s Day, as well as for September 1st.
Moreover, you can take absolutely any box of chocolates, or a bag of sweets, etc., and put your creation on top. In general, look below and you will understand everything yourself.
We will need:
- chocolate candies, preferably nuts (almonds or hazelnuts) in chocolate
- a box of any chocolates, such as Raffaello or cookies
- Floral crepe paper: green, light green and white
- green tape
- flexible wire
- threads
- scotch
- scissors
- yardstick
- hot glue gun
1. In order to build 5 flowers, you will need strips: from white crepe paper 5 strips, width - 2 cm, length - 50 cm, from light green - 5 rectangles 5cmx4cm, from green - 2 strips 50 cm long, and width - 2 cm.
2. Now load the gun with the rod and wait until it is ready for use. Glue each candy, or rather the tip of the candy wrapper, onto the wire, as shown in the picture below.
3. From the rectangles that you made in the amount of 5 pieces, carefully frame them with your hands and make a wavy edge. Squeeze a little, as if you were making an accordion.
4. Now you need to make a deepening.
5. The flower leaves will be white, so take the white strips and get started. Using a ruler, divide into three segments, that is, at a distance of 16.5 cm. Cut. Now twist each resulting strip in this way, as shown in the photo, around its axis by 360 degrees.
6. After rolling, fold each piece in half to form a petal. Make a small indentation.
7. Thus we have come to the final stage of work. Take the wire with the candy and hide it in light green crepe paper. To prevent the paper from falling off, secure it with threads. Then apply white petals and also tie with thread.
8. The result should be something like this. Everything worked out? Well done! Move on.
9. Here’s a top view to make it more clear to you what we’re talking about.
10. Carefully trim all excess with scissors at 45 degrees.
11. Now we decorate the wire and add leaves. To do this, divide the green strips (you have two of them) into four pieces each. As a result, there will be 8 blanks. Trim each piece so that it reminds you of a leaf. Take a look below and see how the job needs to be done. After that, also bend the leaves a little, then you will see why.
12. Now, to hide all the threads and wire, wrap the sepal and stem with adhesive tape.
13. A little lower after the sepals, take a previously prepared green leaf and fix it. There's another one a little lower.
14. Well, this is the amazing result that will await you at the exit. You can decorate with beads and tie a bow. Place the bouquet on the box, dripping it in one place with a glue gun so that the flowers do not fall, and give it to the one you love so much.
Or you can design it differently, add more toys and put such a miracle in a vase or basket.
If you are going on a romantic date or wedding. Then it will be possible to make a more expensive and rich bouquet.
We will need:
- Ferrero Rocher candies or other round shaped candies
- mesh fabric or other light and airy fabric, such as organza
The entire manufacturing process is outlined below in pictures.

Technique:
Cut the scarlet paper into small pieces. Their size should correspond to 16.5x2 cm.
We also make strips of 8x4 cm from red paper.
We twist the long strip several times in the center and bend it in half.
Carefully straighten the strip so that the paper takes on a curved shape.
Place the candy inside and make a few turns.
Fold a small strip in half and cut out a petal. We do the same with the remaining strips.
We stretch the paper in the central part, giving it a concave shape.
We attach the petals to the candy blank.
We attach a skewer to the base and wrap it with tape.
Cut out 2 strips of green paper measuring 16x2 cm. Fold it in half and cut out a sheet. In the central part we stretch the sheet. We do the same with the second strip.
We attach the leaves to the trunk.
- This way we get multi-colored tulips, the number of which we determine ourselves.
- Let's start making the pot. To do this, cut out the foam plastic according to the shape of the prepared container and place it in the pot.
We insert tulips into flower pots and use sisal as decoration.

Candy quest
Is your significant other having a birthday soon?
Or is your wedding or dating anniversary approaching? You don't know how to surprise and please your wife? We bring to your attention a great gift idea - a candy quest! You can buy it at a candy store, but it’s still better to make a gift with your own hands. So, you will need a glass bottle with a wide neck and delicious little candies. Wrap each candy in a piece of paper - write mini-tips on it that will lead the hero of the occasion to the main gift.
You will delight your spouse with such an unusual and creative approach to giving the main gift.
As you can see, gifts can be given in the most unusual way; originality has always been held in high esteem and distinguished the giver from the general mass of people. Don’t be banal, use your fantasy and imagination, because a holiday is always a sea of fun, appropriate humor and good mood. And the happy sparkling eyes of the hero of the occasion will be the best reward for you.
How to make it yourself
If the bride decides to create a bouquet of sweets for her wedding with her own hands, she will need to stock up not only on the sweets themselves, but also on additional decorations to make the composition look like the real thing. Depending on the image of the bride and the overall style of the wedding, the following elements may be needed:
- colored paper;
- corrugated paper;
- ribbons;
- lace;
- translucent fabrics;
- beads;
- rhinestones;
- decorative greenery;
- gift paper for wrapping.
The main elements of the bouquet will be the candies themselves. They can be one or more types - both chocolate and caramel are suitable. Particularly popular is a wedding bouquet of Raffaello sweets, decorated with your own hands. In addition to this, you can use lollipops, chewing gum, for example, Love is, which is suitable for the wedding style of the same name.
The candies are glued to thin wooden sticks with tape wrapped around the base in several layers. Cooking skewers work well for this. To secure improvised flowers in one position, you will need a boutonniere or a small pot filled with floral foam. You can make wedding bouquets made of sweets, photos of which are presented in our article, with your own hands.
The simplest option is a candy bouquet of “tulips”. To create them you will need to do the following.
- Squares are cut out of thick translucent fabric or paper to the size of the desired buds, then rolled into a bag, the edges of which are fastened with double-sided tape.
- The selected candies are secured to the sticks with tape.
- Each bag is placed on the candy so that its sharp tip is on top.
- The ends of the bag are carefully secured under the candy.
- The stick is wrapped with green ribbon made of the same material as the buds.
- Another tape of dense material is attached to the base, which is twisted into a spiral in the form of a sheet directed upward.
If you wish, you can make a bouquet not of tulips, but of roses. This will require a little more time and materials, but if done correctly the result will be spectacular. To make your own wedding candy bouquet, you will need everything listed below.
- Cut out individual petals from corrugated paper: some a little smaller, others a little larger.
- Tape a round wrapped candy to a long wooden stick with tape.
- Using double-sided tape, glue the paper under the candy - this will be the basis for attaching the petals.
- Glue the petals under the candy in a circle, starting with small ones and ending with large ones, forming the necessary bends.
Candies in a bouquet can be presented not only in the form of flowers; it is enough to simply pack them in a beautiful wrapper. For example, you can wrap each sweet with a piece of tulle and tie it with a thin satin ribbon.
Ideas for Beginners
For the first time, you shouldn’t come up with something complicated. A cute caramel bouquet will look great. This is the most suitable option for beginners, requiring a minimum of skills. The candies must be the same shape.
Sequence of work:
- The petals are cut out like a garland.
- Caramels are secured to wire or skewers using tape or thread.
- Wrap a garland of petals around the candy, securing it underneath with glue or tape.
- Shape the petals by stretching and tucking them using toothpicks to create a bud or an open flower.
- Place paper leaves on the stem. Wrap the wire tightly with tape. The more such flowers, the more magnificent the bouquet will be. Finally, wrap your masterpiece in a sheet of paper or a piece of organza and decorate it with a bow.
Making a rosebud from corrugated paper and candies using a garland
An even simpler option is candy on skewers with a bow tied on it. All that remains is to strengthen the skewers at the base, cover it with fabric of the same color and decorate it with a large bow of a contrasting color.
Candies can simply be placed on skewers
Snow-white Raffaello balls look great surrounded by cream and pink petals. Tight buds and lush roses with such a core captivate at first sight. The manufacturing technology is similar to caramel ones, but try placing several transparent beads on the petals - the “dew” effect will make the bouquet even more vibrant.
Sometimes you don't even need to wrap each candy in petals to create a bouquet. Chupa Chups can simply be mounted on skewers, or a bouquet can be made by adding paper “greens” or “feathers”. Such a bouquet should consist of many sweets - the more, the more impressive. Bright wrapping paper and a fluffy bow will finish the job.
If you want to create a bouquet of buds, it is better to choose truffles. Their cone-shaped shape is most convenient for this. The candy is completely hidden inside the flower, making you feel pleasantly excited with anticipation.
How to give an original gift?
A sweet set is a very good gift option for any occasion. It is rare to meet a person who is against sweets. Cakes, pastries, a variety of candies, marshmallows, marshmallows, waffles - there are a lot of sweets, such a gift cannot but delight.
It’s better to give gifts yourself and in your own hands; you can hide a New Year’s sweet set at home in a secluded place. If you want to surprise your loved one, you can put a beautifully decorated gift on the bed or leave it in plain sight, adding a sweet one with wishes.
You will learn more about creating and decorating gifts from sweets in the following video.
What sweets can you use?
To make a gift souvenir, room decor or a bride's bouquet of sweets memorable, corresponding to the aesthetics and style of the celebration, you can use the most unusual confectionery products. It is acceptable to use different types of sweets, but mono-bouquets also look interesting. In addition to chocolate products and Raffaello, caramel, candies with waffle filling, with nuts, coconut and berries would be appropriate.
If the idea of the overall design of the ceremony allows, you can make the bride’s bouquet from Ferrero Rocher; this type of candy will attract the attention of guests and become an original accessory.
Beautiful candy bouquets are created using products of different shapes. The most popular candy shapes are round or cone-shaped. But it can also be a hemisphere, an oval, a block. The choice of candy wrapper is very picky, because the entire product must fit into the image being created without disturbing the overall impression. Candy looks great at a wedding in special, custom-made wrappers that are decorated with the names or beautiful initials of the bride and groom.
Chocolate flavored gift
Chocolate was always given as a small present for a small service rendered, just like that, in honor of the sunny weather. Most often, he was received with a slight smile, but without much enthusiasm, and a phrase like: “Well, what kind of present is this?!” Couldn’t you come up with something more original?!”
We hasten to please you - today there is a great opportunity to stand out from the crowd of all givers with the help of a chocolate gift. What should be done? Yes, make a minimum of effort - buy gift chocolate!
The owners of large corporations and companies have already “appreciated” the value of souvenir chocolate - they buy sweets with the organization’s logo already printed on them and give them as a present when meeting with business partners.
give to your loved one for Valentine's Day
By the way, many chocolate workshops are opening today, where you can sculpt any figure from chocolate mass with your own hands.
Chocolate gift "Roses"
Here you also need candies made in the shape of pyramids. You will also need a basket, corrugated paper (green and pink), artificial rose leaves, adhesive tape, two millimeter wire, glue and rubber bands for money, preferably white ones.
The principle is similar:
Cut out a pink rectangle from paper, fold it in half, and round 1 of the corners. It turns out to be an envelope in which the candy is placed.
At the base of the envelope, wrap a rubber band around the edge of the bud, so the flat side of the candy will be the top of the bud (where the corner is rounded).
Place a wire of the required size (about 15 cm) under the paper, and strengthen the base of the resulting bud with adhesive tape.
We stretch the middle of the petal; this paper lends itself well and does not tear. Place the finished petals on glue on the base of the fabric bud.
Green papers are useful for making leaves. We cut out sharp small leaves and glue them in the place where the bud and stem connect. We take the adhesive tape and wrap it around the base of the bud several times, slowly going down to the very end of the wire stem.
By stretching the paper, try to make the petals of different shapes so that it seems as if a living flower has just begun to bloom.
For a basket of chocolate roses you will need to make about 35 flowers. The gift will look more festive if you wrap a satin ribbon around the handle of the basket and make a bow from a small satin ribbon. The bow on the handle can be lightly sprayed with perfume, and a little rose oil can be dropped on the petals.
Don't overdo it! This is an imitation of a real bouquet, and it shouldn’t smell like perfume a kilometer away.
