What do you need to make a candy bouquet?

You only need a few simple items to put together a candy bouquet sure to be a hit. Grab all of their favorite candy in various sizes, candy hearts, ribbon and a mason jar.

It is so easy to make a candy bar bouquet for special occasions or a Valentine’s Day gift.

How to make your own candy bouquet?

It is so easy and all you do is attach your candy to Wilton treat sticks or you can use straws or lollipop sticks. You can even use wooden skewers to make this.

Once you have everything glued together, it all gets tucked into a mason jar.

How to make a candy bouquet in a cup?

If you prefer not to use a mason jar, a cup would work just as well. Grab a cup and put the candy inside just as you would the mason jar.

You can opt to use a Valentine cup or even a valentine mug to make this. Since it isn’t clear, you can skip the candy hearts. This is another fun option and a great idea if you need to make several on a smaller scale.

What are some other candy bouquet ideas?

You can do all sorts of ideas for candy bouquets. We make these all year round and they are always so well received.

Other ideas include: lip balm, cute socks, cash, matchbox cars and more. All of these are cute alternatives to candy.

Candy arrangements are awesome, but you don’t have to just use candy. Think outside the box. We have even made one for a baby shower with baby socks, bibs and small toys.

How to make a Candy Bouquet DIY easily:

  • First fill your mason jar about a third of the way with your candy hearts. These are going to keep the sticks in place.
  • Next add a bead of hot glue down the back of one piece of candy. Push in one treat stick and allow to dry.
  • Continue to do this with all of the candy.
  • Once the hot glue is dry begin sticking them into the mason jar with candy.
  • Begin adding in more of the loose sweet tarts in the mason jar to help keep the sticks in place. Make sure the mason jar is completely filled with candy once you have placed your candy where you want them.
  • Once finished, push in some tissue paper in the back to give the arrangement a background.
  • Then cut a piece of ribbon and tie it around the mason jar.
  • Finally give your new candy gift basket to someone. They will love it.

Note- You can use a small piece of floral block or floral foam in the bottom of the mason jar. This will reduce the amount of candy hearts needed.
