How to Make Craft Flowers Out of Reese's Cups
Flowers and candy are among those most popular gifts. Achieve a combination of the two by forming Reese's peanut butter cups into flowers. Reese's peanut butter cups have a tapered, ridged, bulbous shape making them easier to shape into edible flowers. By inserting a rigid stick into the bottom of the candy you create a stem for your little peanut butter and chocolate blooms.

3
Insert a lollipop stick into each peanut butter cup. Push it 1/4 inch into the candy.

Line the Reese's flowers up evenly, so all of the sticks are in a row closer to you than the candy.

Cut small football-shaped leaves out of green paper with scissors or a craft punch.

Apply a small dot of craft glue to a tip of a leaf. Press the leaf to the lollipop stem. Affix one or two leaves on each stem.
