Ferrero Chocolate Bouquet for Valentine's {Tutorial}
January 16, 2017
Valentine's day is coming up soon! I thought it would a perfect timing to share this tutorial for those who are looking for a handmade Valentine's gift idea. I actually made this chocolate bouquet as a gift for a colleague at work. She's a snacker, and she munches on candies and chocolates at her desk all the time. Even though she likes to eat chocolates but, I honestly don't want to just gift a regular box of chocolates. I want to put in some effort and personalize it to make it more special. So, I thought why not package it into a nice flower bouquet? After all, most ladies would appreciate a bouquet as a surprise, right?
And I like to sell this tutorial as "killing two birds with one stone". You have BOTH flower bouquet and chocolates in ONE GIFT! How amazing is that?
How to make a Ferrero Chocolate Bouquet
Materials:
- Bamboo sticks x 6 or more if you want to make a larger bouquet
- Ferrero Chocolates
- Tissue papers (I used red and teal colours), cut into square pieces
- Tape
- Ribbon
- Scissors
- Elastic band
Instructions:
Step 1: Pierce each Ferrero chocolate. Make sure that you poke far but not far enough that the stick pokes out of the chocolate.
Step 2: Grab the tissue paper squares and fold each of them diagonally at an angle. Wrap each stick with tissue paper and secure the bottom edge with tape.
Step 3: Repeat step 2 with teal tissue paper.
Step 4: Gather all the "skewers" into a bunch and tape the end so that they form a bouquet.
Step 5: Get a large piece of tissue paper and wrap the bunch. Twist the end so that the tissue paper wraps around the end of the skewers. Secure the bunch with tape.
Step 6: Tie the bunch with ribbon and you're done!
