In any case, to visit (or to present itself) as the recipient or donor bouquet of sweets brought virtually every woman. And what about the role of the creator of the sweet masterpiece? You do not want to learn how to make bouquets of sweets with their hands?
Incidentally, master the art of "sweet flower arranging" can any representative of the beautiful half of humanity. After all, we are able to appreciate the wonderful combination of seductive chocolate taste and man-made beauty of the bouquet. And do not try yourself in the sweet floral design even as a shame. So let's not shelving them, learn how to make a bouquet of sweets with their hands.
Choose candy
Candy - the most important component of a sweet bouquet. It is possible, of course, that your creation will be so great, that the recipient of the bouquet will not dare eat it, and set up on the most prominent place and will admire this masterpiece. But, most likely, he will not resist the temptation and taste the contents of a sweet bouquet. Therefore, it is important not only to select a suitable form and design candy wrappers, but also their variety (color and taste).
The taste and color, as we know, no friends. Therefore, if you know the tastes of whom you are going to present a bouquet of sweets, choose the delicacy, which is to his taste. Or gather a bunch of those chocolates, the taste of which you know and like. If the gift is intended for especially solemn events, not be amiss to splurge on the most expensive candy.
Shaped candy, too, is different. From what form of candy you choose depends on the form of candy "colors." For example, most comfortable to work with a bunch of round candy considered, rectangular well suited for cylindrical "color" chocolate figures - for Easter and Christmas bouquets and medals - for wedding and anniversary.
If you selected chocolates are packaged in beautiful wrappers, they can not be further decorate. If the design of the wrapper you do not like (or candy do not), you can use a beautiful wrapping paper to create color.
Try to vary the contents of your bouquet. It need not be the only chocolate candy. Use caramel sweets, candies, jellies. Believe me, presented a bouquet cause a lot of positive emotions, when it will be found more and more new "flower stuffing".
Prepare material for the bouquet
For the production of sweet candy bouquet in addition to themselves (in wrappers or not), you'll need additional materials:
- wrapping paper;
- packing tape;
- adhesive tape;
- wooden toothpicks, skewers or sticks for barbecue;
- teip tape (sticky floral tape) and floral foam "oasis";
- container bouquet;
- All that can be used for decoration.
Putting flowers
Let's try to make flowers, cones. Cut the wrapping paper squares (with sides of about fifteen centimeters). Each box is turned off in kulechek and fasten a small piece of one-sided transparent tape. Inside we put a piece of candy (better round or truffle). The wooden skewers work hard candy, wrap (to buckle under the candy) kulechka edge and also fix them with tape, wrapping them and part of the skewers. Masking adhesive tape decorative ribbon. We had a cone flower with a blank tip and candy at the bottom.
Flowers truffles in colorful wrappers. Take candy, putting a skewer to candy wrappers and tight ponytail twirl wrapper around skewers. Top winding ribbon-cutting teip.
Candy in the cylinder. For this, too, is better to take a round or oval candy wrappers in a ponytail. Of transparent or colored paper cut out rectangle (10 by 20 centimeters) and wrap them candy so that it was in the center of the cylinder. The lower edge of the cylinder wrapped around skewers and fix them with tape or tape-teip. The free end of the cylinder packing ribbon tying.
Round flowers. Cut a rectangle of paper (the same as for the cylinder). Put the candy in the center of the rectangle, it puts skewer. The edges of the paper wraps around skewers and fasten with tape. Decorate teip-colored tape or ribbon. If desired, add the "petals" of the corrugated paper.
Make up a bouquet
Take the container (plastic jar, box, flower pot or pots). Inserted inside a piece of foam or "oasis". Secure it with tape bilateral. Container wrapping wrapping paper (that's how you like). We put in a container flowers and decorative extras (twigs, leaves, dried flowers or fresh flowers).
