Do-it-yourself bouquet of kinder surprises step by step
A chocolate egg with a small toy inside is one of the most interesting gifts for children all over the world. The more Kinder surprises, the more joy for children. A bouquet of kinder surprises will be an original gift.
You can buy ready-made bouquets, or you can make them yourself. A handmade gift is especially nice to give. And even a small child will be able to appreciate your work.
You can buy the necessary materials at flower or stationery stores. Sometimes you have to visit several places to collect the necessary set.
A bouquet of kinder surprises for a boy
To create such a creative bouquet you will need the following materials:
- Kinder surprises - from 3 pieces
- Corrugated paper in several colors
- Floral Ribbon
- Any decorative elements - beads, small toys, flowers, bows
- Fabric - satin, organza or felt
- Scotch
- Thermal gun
- Scissors
In order to make flower stems, you can resort to several methods:
Method 1 . Fastening on wooden kebabs skewers Method 2 . Wrapping in cling film Method 3 . Special holders. They usually hold balloons
The hardest part is securing the eggs to the legs.
In any case, you will have to tinker with such a bouquet. But it’s worth it, because a child’s sincere smile is the most precious praise and gratitude.
So, let's get to work:
First form the flowers
If you have kebab sticks, do it like this:
- Take 4 sticks, carefully insert an egg between them
- Secure the egg with tape to prevent it from falling out
- Wrap the skewers in two places with tape to prevent them from falling apart
If you use cling film, do it as follows:
- Wrap the egg in one layer of cling film
- Twist the ends of the cling film into a ponytail. Calculate the amount of film so that you get a rather large tail
- When all the eggs are wrapped, combine all the tails into one. Wrap it with tape for durability.
If you bought special holders:
- Carefully insert the egg into the holder
- Secure the base of the egg with thin tape
The next step is to design the stem
Use fabric to decorate the stem. It can be felt or organza. Simply wrap a piece of fabric around the stick. Secure the edges with a heat gun or glue.
You can make the stem green, thereby bringing the look closer to natural. But this is not at all necessary. Your color scheme can be anything, the main thing is that all the colors in the bouquet are harmoniously combined.
Flower decoration
Each “kinder flower” can be wrapped in a piece of corrugated paper. You can pull the paper to the sides or cut it into a wave.
Decorating the bouquet
Carefully collect the eggs into a bouquet, forming the middle. Check if the eggs look nice. After this, wrap the bouquet in corrugated paper and secure it tightly. Use your imagination and add the missing elements: beads, toys, floral ribbon, etc.

Materials for work
It is better to carry out the work in a well-organized place where there is a source of high-quality lighting. You also need to prepare:
- Metal wire.
- Wooden skewers.
- Corrugated paper of various colors for decorative purposes.
- Adhesive tape.
- Wrapping paper.
- Cardboard or felt for making a flower pillow.
Candies, chocolates, lollipops - this component is chosen directly by the master, depending on the wishes of the hero of the occasion.
Practical tips for creating a bouquet
The decorative part of the gift bouquet got its name for a reason. There is no need to strictly observe the proportions and ornament of the flower bud. The most important principles to work with are to firmly secure the sweet surprises in the packaging, and also to give the bouquet a compact and stylish look.
You can use any material for decoration, but crepe is the most popular and accessible. Corrugated paper makes realistic buds, petals and inflorescences.
Methods for assembling sweet buds
Working with crepe has a number of advantages, and one of them is the ease of assembling parts. There are several options for the master:
- Using a topstitch stitch. A long strip of paper is prepared from the crepe and a stitch is laid in the center. The blank is wrapped around the candy, forming a bud.
- Stitching petals around the surprise.
- Sewing the petals to the base (in the form of a cardboard circle or felt pillow) to which the candy is glued.
Sometimes in practice there are other methods: mounting on foam plastic, screeding with adhesive tape.
Master classes on making bouquets
Any birthday person dreams of receiving an original gift, and the master has the opportunity to realize this dream using his creative potential. For those whose needlework experience is limited, there are detailed instructions and video tutorials on how to form bouquets with sweets.

We will tell you about one method of making sweet bouquets!
Sweet bouquets have recently come into fashion and are in line with other gifts that guys give to their beloved girls on Birthdays, Anniversaries. Mostly such gifts are given in spring, autumn and winter. Since summer can inevitably spoil your gift, slightly dousing it with its warm rays of the sun. But if it’s spring, autumn or winter, then this master class is just right. Today you will learn how to make a bouquet of sweet candies, cakes, marmalade, candy bars and so on. And tomorrow you will go to hand it over to your recipient! We warn you right away that making this sweet bouquet is a little different from making a sweet bouquet only from candies. However, we will soon publish an article about this too. Well, let's get started!
To prepare for making a sweet bouquet, first of all we need to visit a store where we will buy the most delicious sweets for our gift. We list the components that are ideal for a bouquet, in our opinion:
- Marmalade
- Marshmallow
- Marshmallow
- Paste
- Chocolate bars, but not waffle bars
- A variety of oriental sweets look very original in a bouquet.
- We also make sure to take wooden skewers.
Food markets are very helpful with the selection of ingredients, where sellers have a huge variety of different sweets.
After returning home, we prepare the workplace and tools:
- Secateurs
- Knife and cutting board
- Scotch
You can see what we used in the photo. We were a little lucky and found an interesting box of 8 macaroons at a very low price, thanks to which an interesting purple twist appeared in the bouquet:
1. Get rid of the packaging and cut up the sweets. The first thing we will do is get rid of the packaging of sweets, all of them at once, otherwise this garbage will greatly interfere with the making of the bouquet. Then we will carefully cut up some sweets with a clean knife. In our case, we cut the Milky Way bar in half and divided the marshmallow into 3 parts.
2. Place the components on wooden skewers. Once you have taken out all the components and cut them, it’s time to put them on the wooden skewers. There are a few tricks here too:
- The more sweetness we put on, the more skewers we use. The heavier, the more.
- Wooden sticks must be inserted 1/3 into marshmallows, 2/3 into marshmallows, 2/3 into marmalade, and marshmallows all the way through. The fact is that the deeper you stick the sticks, the greater the chance that the sweetness will tear when decorating the bouquet. And it will no longer be suitable. I'll have to eat it. DO NOT USE THIS ITEM IF YOU ARE REALLY HUNGRY TO EAT.
- To avoid constant turning of some sweets, when decorating a bouquet, you can also use not one, but 2-3 sticks.
- To add scale and volume, we put several sweets on sticks, such as marshmallows and marmalade. Thanks to them, you can diversify the bouquet with multi-colored protrusions.
3. (The point at which you will have to sweat.) Assembling the bouquet. Assembling the bouquet using the spiral technique, which we recently described well and in detail in our blog; you can see the spiral assembly technique here. In general, we turn on our imagination and our dexterity, and carefully, little by little, collect your bouquet. Don't be upset that some sweets won't stick well or won't look right in certain places. We experiment and achieve good results. Our inveterate craftsmen take about an HOUR to assemble such bouquets! Therefore, this will take you a lot of time.
DO NOT FORGET to constantly secure your sweet bouquet with tape every 3-5 sweets, otherwise you risk scattering everything and ruining the result of your work.
4. Almost ready. After the painful assembly of the bouquet, we trim the long skewers with pruning shears and pack the bouquet in any way known to you. We will definitely make an article about packaging soon. In the meantime, hang in there.
Also, the entire assembly process is very similar to assembling a marshmallow bouquet, so you can clearly see it in our short video:
