Bored with standard bouquets? Want to give an original gift? Then it is worth paying close attention to a bouquet, the composition of which includes candy.

But to make a gift really attractive, you need to know exactly how to make a bouquet of chocolates with your own hands and which compositions look the most attractive.

Bouquet of poppies

For the composition you will need:

  • 7-11 truffles.
  • Corrugated paper of red color.
  • Polypropylene straps of different widths.
  • Decorative mesh.
  • Wooden skewers.
  • Natural or artificial greenery for decoration.
  • Wire for floristics.
  • Ribbon.

Creation process:

  • Take corrugated paper and cut it into rectangles whose length on two sides is 18 x 12 cm.
  • Inside each corrugated rectangle put a candy. The edges lift up and tie with a ribbon.
  • If necessary, trim the top edge so it is flat.
  • Then spread the paper so that it forms the petals of a flower.
  • Attach the resulting poppy buds to wooden skewers. You can do this by either gluing the paper or wrapping them with ribbon.
  • Wrap a green ribbon around the attachment points, imitating a stem.
  • Then, gather the skewers together, decorating with decorative or artificial greenery.
  • Wrap with netting and tie a bow at the bottom with ribbon.

Such a bouquet of candy with their own hands will be suitable for beginners, as it is extremely simple to make and does not require special skills. But, there are also more complex compositions, the realization of which will require painstaking work.

Bouquet of tulips, from which it is easy to get candy

To create such a masterpiece, you will need:

  • Corrugated paper of any color, as natural tulips can be.
  • Also corrugated paper of a green shade.
  • Sufficiently thick wire or wooden skewers.
  • Tape tape of green color.
  • Decorative netting or pretty paper to create a bouquet shell.
  • Ribbon for exterior decoration.

Step by step process of making a bouquet of tulips:

  • Corrugated paper white, yellow, red or pink is cut into rectangles with sides of 16 cm and 2 cm.
  • For the leaves, cut rectangles with sides of 7 and 4 cm.
  • In one colored strip we place a candy, approximately in the middle. Twist on one side, fold over the candy, twist on the other side, and tie tightly with string.
  • Two other strips of colored paper are needed to make the petals of the tulip bud. They need to be cut off a little at the top, so that they are sharpened.
  • Then this pointed edge needs to be twisted and bent down.
  • In the middle it is smoothed out and stretched wide, as if forming an oval of the petal itself.
  • Candy wrapped in paper, placed inside a petal, covered with the top of the second and tightly wrapped at the base. It is desirable that the petals are slightly on top of each other, as if forming a tight cocoon.
  • Then, the lower part of the tulip bud should be fixed on a skewer or wire.
  • From green corrugated paper, cut out the leaves of the bud and stretch them in the middle to give them the desired volumetric shape.
  • At the same time wrapping tapes around the skewer, fix the green leaves that cover the bud.
  • With a small piece of green corrugated paper we wrap this bud at the base.
  • Put it all together in a composition - wrap it in a beautiful grid, forming a cummerbund.
  • Tie it with a ribbon.

Bouquet of chocolates with fabric

If desired, you can make a bouquet without paper. In this case, the decorative material is organza or some other light fabric that holds its shape well enough.

For the bouquet, you will need:

  • Candy rounds, such as Ferrero or truffles.
  • Corrugated paper with a metal effect.
  • Organza.
  • Tight wire.
  • Duplex scotch tape.
  • Ribbon for decoration.

Sequence of Creation:

  • From metallized corrugated paper, cut rectangles with sides, approximately 7 by 3 cm.
  • Put the candy in the paper and wrap it very tightly so that it turns out a kind of cup from which the candy will look out, and the bottom should be formed a dense stem.
  • Then the legs of such buds are fixed on wires for floristics.
  • After that, appropriate sized rectangles of organza are cut out. They wrap the buds again on top, from the bottom of the wire to tie the material with a gold or silver ribbon.
  • Assemble the bouquet of candy, fixing all the elements of the wire rather tightly with scotch tape or simply tying it tightly with string.
  • Wrap everything on top with organza, preferably folded in half so that the top edge forms a roll. Thus formed a cube for the bouquet, which is tied at the bottom with a decorative ribbon.

Pineapple candy with a surprise

Such a combination is very original. In addition, you can perform it quickly enough, the main thing is to get hold of everything you need.

For work you will need:

  • Candy round in shape and necessarily wrapped tightly in a wrapper.
  • Green corrugated paper.
  • A bottle of champagne or wine.
  • Palm fiber.
  • Glue.
  • Stiff twine.

Step-by-step process:

  • The bottle must be wrapped tightly with sisal, fixing it with a glue gun.
  • Then, it is necessary to glue the candy tightly to the palm fiber.
  • In this way it is necessary to reach the tapering part.
  • Then cut elongated leaves from corrugated paper, like on top of a real pineapple.
  • Start gluing them around the neck of the bottle from the top, gradually overlapping the leaves and receding to the bottom.
  • To make the bottle really look like a pineapple, you should try to turn the leaves outward, as if bending them and rounding them.
  • To avoid candy falling off accidentally, close the pineapple at the bottom in transparent cellophane and collect everything at the top with a ribbon. It should come exactly where the neck begins after the wide part. The leaves should stay above the cellophane.
  • If desired, decorate with a bow.

Easy option

When you want to quickly, but simply make a bouquet of candy with their own hands, step by step instructions with photos will help.

In addition, you can use the simplest instructions, for which you will need such ingredients:

  • Raffaello in an amount of 15-19 pieces.
  • Flexible, but at the same time quite dense wire.
  • Red or white organza.
  • Golden ribbon.
  • Scotch tape.

The process of making:

  • It is necessary to attach the candy to the wire with the help of duct tape.
  • Then, with the help of red organza of a long enough length, gather a tight bundle.
  • Simultaneously with its tacking, you should insert the wires with sweets between the folds of fabric.
  • Thus assemble a large bouquet. It is important that the fabric underneath covers the length of all the wires, otherwise they will need to be cut away.
  • Tie everything with a beautiful decorative ribbon, forming a bow.
