DIY Chocolate Valentines Bouquet

A bouquet of roses is the most common present one gives or receives on Valentine’s Day. It’s a sweet gift, and it usually warms every woman’s heart. But if you don’t want to give fresh roses or any kind of flowers this time around, why not try something that’s unique that you can make by yourself? I’m sure your loved one or significant other would be thrilled to find out you spent an hour making something beautiful for her or him. NS Creative Collections on Youtube gives us a tutorial on how to make a chocolate bouquet. It’s a really good idea! It’s a cute mashup of flowers and chocolates—the two items women love receiving on Valentine’s Day. Try it!

Materials: 

• Ferrero Rocher chocolates
• Dollar tree skewers
• Transparent plastic wrapper
• white plastic bag
• white and red paper squares
• styrofoam
• transparent plastic with hearts design
• red bow

Directions: 

Wrap each chocolate with a plastic wrapper. Twist the ends of the wrapper and stick a skewer into the chocolate. To seal the plastic, wrap it with tape.You now have a chocolate lollipop. Repeat the procedure for each chocolate.

Put your bag and paper squares on the table. Fold the squares to make cylinders and staple the ends to close. Then put the ends of the chocolate skewers through the small hole in the folded white paper. Slip the white paper towards the end of the wrapped chocolate. The white paper cylinder will now look like petals wrapping the chocolate. Do the same with the red cylinders and let them wrap around the white paper. Wrap tape on the ends so the flowers will be in place. You will now have a rose with a piece of chocolate in the middle. Do the same to the other chocolates.

Take out your styrofoam bars. Put glue on one side of the one styrofoam block, then stick the two bars together. Stick the flower chocolates on the top of the styrofoam. You will now have a bouquet of roses. Wrap tape around the styrofoam to put the bars in place. Then wrap a  larger white paper around the styrofoam to hide it. The white paper will also act as a holder for the bouquet. Add another huge sheet of red paper around the white paper. Then tape the ends of the papers to the bottom of the styrofoam.

Lastly, wrap a transparent plastic with hearts on it around the bouquet. Tie a red bow at the bottom.

There you have it. You now have a DIY chocolate bouquet to give to your loved one on Valentine’s Day.
