Gift Ideas

I will be moving my gift ideas to another website but linking from here. As you can tell I do love crafty things and get carried away with it. I decorate cakes, make fun little gift giving packages so things are unique, anything to do with crafts, I try. Baby Showers, Weddings, favors, cards, anything, I’ve done it all.

I have a great book I downloaded that I wanted to share. It shows some great ways to create “edible” gifts. With this you can also come up with your own creative ideas on ways to give gifts such as the tickets I recently gave with the cookies (although I came up with that myself), or perhaps something in the book will catch your eye and give inspiration on a gift for someone, or an addition to a gift for someone. Or even a centerpiece for a party, a hostess gift, anything.

It does offer the option of doing this for fun or your own business. Me, I do it for fun. I do not have my own business of creating these for people. I have made many cakes for others, blankets, favors, etc. but not as a business. I just did it …..well…..just because..lol. But yes, you can absolutely create a “mini biz” doing this. Possiblities are always endless in anything.

Candy Boquet Book

233 page step-by-step Guide “How to Make Candy Bouquets for Fun and Profit”

The book is about Candy Boquets, but you can alter anything and make it your own. (like I did with the cookies in the post below.) Here is a great idea from the book

Candy Arrangement in a Sundae Glass
You will need: a Sundae glass, a piece of stick candy, Hershey’s chocolate kisses of one flavor or several, Life Savers, curling ribbons, pipe cleaners or thin stem wire, scissors and wire cutters.

1. Find a Sundae glass you would like to use in your candy arrangement.

2. Fill the Sundae glass with the Hershey’s chocolate kisses.

3. Put the stick candy of the matching color into the glass.

4. (Optional). You can put Life Savers candy on the top of the Sundae
(they will form whipped cream securing them in place with glue dots or
double-sided tape as necessary.

5.a) Prepare curling ribbons of colors that correspond with the kisses wrappers.
You can also buy ready-made curl swirls.

b) Take a piece of pipe cleaner or thin stem wire and tightly wrap it
around the middle of the curling ribbons from step a).
Curl the ribbons by pulling them over the edge of the scissors.

c) Insert the curling ribbons in the glass. Your beautiful and tasty Candy Sundae is ready!

If you want to quickly and easily learn how to make candy bouquets either to start your own business
or just to be able to make amazing memorable gifts for any occasion, check out the
valuable “illustrated” step-by-step guide “How to make beautiful candy bouquets for fun and profit”.
