Floral Bouquet
If you’re looking for a fresh take on spring entertaining, this is one of the biggest trends right now—edible bouquets. We’re turning classic charcuterie ingredients into something that looks like a floral arrangement, with salami roses, skewers, cheeses, and fresh herbs styled right into a jar. It’s playful, it’s portable, and it doubles as both your centerpiece and your appetizer. It’s that perfect mix of creativity and convenience that people are loving right now.
Spring entertaining is all about food that feels fresh, beautiful, and easy. Instead of a traditional board, we’re turning charcuterie into an edible floral bouquet — part appetizer, part centerpiece.
Create the Layered Base
Layer ingredients directly inside the glass jar:
- Bottom: raspberries or strawberries
- Middle: cubed cheeses (yellow + white for contrast)
- Top layer: nuts or olives
Build Structure with Breadsticks
- Insert breadsticks vertically at the back of the jar. This acts like the backbone of your bouquet—just like stems in florals. It gives height and makes everything feel intentional and styled.
Add Salami Roses & Skewers (have these already finished)
- Salami roses are what give this that floral bouquet look. They instantly make simple ingredients feel elevated and party-ready. Skewers add the height to the bouquet and just like any real bouquet, you want height, texture, and colour.
Add Crackers - Finish off with greenery
- Insert rosemary or mint sprigs evenly around the bouquet. This doing double duty—it looks like greenery, but it also smells incredible. It gives that fresh, garden-inspired feel.
Croissant Tower
Have it mostly assembled, adding finishing touches!
If you’re looking for a true showstopper this spring, this is it—a croissant tower. We’re seeing a big shift from flat grazing boards to vertical, statement pieces, and this brings that trend to life in the most delicious way. It’s layered with flaky croissants, fresh fruit, and indulgent elements like pistachio cream or chocolate, so it feels both luxurious and approachable. It’s perfect for brunch, entertaining, or any moment where you want your food to double as the centerpiece.
Build the Structure
- Use a firm cone base (foam or structured stand)
- Secure it onto a heavy plate or cake stand
- Optional: insert a central dowel for extra support
This is the most important step—stability. People are going to pull croissants from this, so you want a structure that holds its shape and doesn’t topple.
Layer Croissants Tightly
- Use full-size croissants for this dramatic look
- Stack them tightly, slightly overlapping
Add Soft Floral Elements
Ensure flowers are food-safe or wrapped at stems. This is what transforms it from food into a centerpiece. The flowers give it that soft, romantic, almost bridal feel.
Pistachio Cups
Have them pre-made, add finishing touches!
