How to Make a Candy Bouquet

The first thing that you want to do when creating your bouquet is to think about who the gift is for and what kind of candy you would like to include as well as the container you want to present it in.  The example that I created is for a chocolate lover on Valentine's Day.  I used a large, clear vase and filled it with tasty chocolate treats. 

1. Fill the bottom of the vase with candy, in this case I used Hershey Kisses.
2. Next, place tissue paper in the vase like you would if you were filling a gift bag.  You want to hide the sticks from the rest of the candy as well as the floral block that will hold the sticks in place.
3. Place a green floral block in the center of the vase but tucked inside the tissue paper.
4. Using bamboo sticks, tape the back of the candy with clear packaging tape to the stick.  Repeat this process with each piece of candy.
5. Once the candy is secured to the stick, stick the pointed end of the bamboo stick into the floral block and repeat with the additional candy sticks.  Be sure to place them at different heights and angles to make it visually appealing.
6. Fill in the gaps with another color of tissue paper and any other decorations such as twizzlers candy, ribbon, or fake flowers.
7. Add a ribbon to the front of the vase to add some extra glitz to the bouquet.
