Edible Delights


Flowers are not the only thing to put in a vase so don’t limit yourself. Gather in a bounty of fruits and vegetables straight from the garden (or the supermarket shelves!) and create your own harvest festival. Broccoli, mushrooms, peppers, corn, apples - the list goes on and on. Relish the range of colors, shapes and textures, and allow your imagination to run riot.
It is very important to create lively arrangements that are not only admired by your guests but also eaten gladly, and are also healthful. Fruits and vegetables are not only very important constituents of our daily nourishment, but with a bit of patience, practice and proficiency they can turn every dish, every table, or buffet into a sensory experience of a special kind. Surprise your guests with artistic little plate decorations or artistic arrangements for a reception. From simple to complicated, from single pieces to bouquets---give your fantasy free rein.
Success depends not only on your ability, but also on the choice of the materials to be used, and naturally also on the suitable tool. The better the quality of the raw materials, the lovelier is the end product. Try to buy fruits and vegetables corresponding to the season. That is the simplest way to assure that the fruits are optimally ripe. Look for nice colors and be sure that the vegetables have no bruises when choosing the materials.
