Chocolate bouquet

Good morning friends, followers and visitors to my blog, I hope you are well. So the Christmas decorations have all been taken down now, the house looks empty but so much lighter but we still have reminders of the season lurking around in the form of uneaten chocolates. So what better way to use them up apart from eating them than to turn them into a chocolate bouquet as a gift for someone else? Actually it was my cross stitching friend that suggested we made these to sell on our website and as neither of us had ever made one, I searched good old youtube for a tutorial and found this one: http://dawnsinspirations.com/?s=Chocolate+bouquet and this is how mine turned out
So having made one, I shall now have to purchase more chocolates to make more bouquets and my friend is going to do some cross stitching for me to turn into little gift cards to go with them.
Thank you for visiting and feel free to ask any questions also you may like to visit my Facebook page https://m.facebook.com/lainairecreations/?ref=bookmarks.
By for now

    Great idea, I've got a house full of chocolate too and my lovely mother-in-law keeps forcing me to take more home every time I visit. She stocks the house for mass family gorging for Christmas.

      Thank you Michelle. Perhaps next time you visit your mother in law you could give some of her chocolate back I the form of a bouquet. I bet she'll want to keep that lol xx

    That is such a clever idea. You could embellish little choccy bars and make bridesmaid bouquets... just saying....

      What a great idea, thank you Cherie. I have made a Valentine's one with Ferrero Rocher, so could do a variation on this xx
