Edible Arrangements

Shop the AStore for delicious edible arrangements you can sink your teeth in.

When everyone else is creating and sending flower arrangements, edible arrangements are becoming a great alternative that can be created for any occasion from Birthdays, Thank You, Congratulations and Sympathy to business events, client gifts or employee appreciation.

What better way to stand out than to create delicious fruit designs filled with strawberries, pineapple, grapes, oranges, cantaloupe, honeydew or apples?  Edible fruit arrangements can be created in a variety of styles and sizes and are a great way to express your imagination and to share some of the most satisfying and healthy treats out there.  Long-stemmed fruit, artistically sculptured cantaloupe and honeydew leaf shapes, pineapple daisies with melon ball centers, rosebud strawberries and grapes shaped as exotic blooms can all be part of your edible arrangement.  For those who want a little sweet to go with their nutrition, a few choicely placed chocolate-dipped strawberries or apples will do just the trick or even better an arrangement unto themselves.

Other edible arrangements that can be put together to create great centerpieces, as well as double for appetizers, are breads and/or muffins or different cheeses and crackers.  But one of the most beautiful and delicious edible arrangements are those that are made using Gumpaste, Sugarpaste or fondant.  Both Gumpaste and sugarpaste are sugar dough’s, which make it easy to shape like modeling clay.  They are stronger and dry more quickly than fondant and are used to create sugar flowers and decorations.  Fondant remains softer for longer and is used mostly to cover cakes and some decorations.  For weddings, anniversaries or special occasions, these edible flower shaped arrangements can be uniquely created and shared.

The beauty and uniqueness of edible arrangements can be shared with others as well as a healthy gift alternative.
