Flowers and Food
From classic cakes to citrus-fruit centerpieces, long-lasting flowers can be displayed with many edible delights. Their cheerful colors and gorgeous shapes enhance desserts, pastries, and more.
Position Flowers on Cake Tiers
Two to three perfectly preserved forever roses, like our Classic Singles, positioned delicately on varying tiers of a birthday or anniversary cake exude elegance and sophistication.

Place Flowers on Top of Party Favors
If you’re hosting a bridal or baby shower, fill glass jars with candy and tie a single, perfectly preserved rose with jute twine to the lid as a classy and sweet favor for your guests.
Display Flowers With Citrus Fruit
For the spring and summer months, you can brighten up anyone’s kitchen table by placing oranges, lemons, and lush greenery around flowers, like our cheerful Nove Rosso Camella perfectly preserved forever roses.

Everyday Items With Flowers
Flowers can also be uniquely presented with common household items. The trick is to first think of the gift-recipient’s hobbies and interests. Then, let your imagination run wild! Look around your home and garage for old or gently-used baskets, books, hats, shoes, tin cans, and even wheelbarrows.
Fill a Bicycle Basket With Flowers
Consider upcycling your old, rusty bicycle into an outdoor floral statement for your friend’s art studio. You can add cascading plants and beautiful long lasting fresh flowers to the wicker basket for a fresh, yet vintage look.

Match Flowers With Paint Cans

Stuff a Sun Hat With Flowers
Use a dated sun hat, top hat, or baseball cap for a one-of-a-kind-floral display. Depending on how it’s positioned, the hat can be hung on a backyard fence or placed on a flower stand as a focal point in your sunroom.
