Chocolate Candy Floral Tree
This bouquet is rather simple, and is made much the same way as the
simple chocolate flower bouquet-just much taller! You can add curly ribbon at the top if you are giving it as a gift!
New steps after basic instructions above:
Step 1: Wrap a cone shaped floral foam piece
in fabric, then use a few metal wires to secure cone to the wrapped foam in the glass container. I used turkey
lacers-the corsage pins aren't quite long enough. You could also clip your floral wire a little shorter, bend the end
and use it to secure the two pieces together.
**Tip-sometimes
the metals(other than the corsage pins) are not sharpened to a point-you may need make tiny slices in your fabric with scissors
or a razor(be CAREFUL!)-the less fabric you have to get thru, the easier the wires and pins go thru.**
Secured in place, you can see my candies showing a little in the glass
container.
Step 2: Add a few leaves from a greenery vine with corsage
pins, near the opening of the container, at the top of the foam block inside the vase. If your leaves are big and seem
a little unruly, you can pin the tip of the leaf to the cone. Add a few smaller leaves at the top.
Step 3: Make your candy flowers by putting your candy in the middle
of your flower petals, and driving a corsage pin through the middle. Then use the rest of the corsage pin to attach
the flower to the foam cone. Fill the cone with several candy middle flowers until the cone is covered.
