fruit roll ups: roses


 



ok so i LOVE fruit roll ups!

i could eat the whole box myself they are so good!

yesterday at the grocery store i walked by them and an idea popped in my head... very typical moment for me.

i went with the package of tropical tie-dye, strawberry and wildfire. 


here's how to make them...





step 1: unroll your fruit roll up.


step 2: begin rolling your fruit roll up in about about a 1/2 inch folds. 


does not have to be perfect.

step 4: roll tight and place in a long wooden skewer. and adjust so it turns out like a rose. make sure your finished edge is folded nicely. you may want to compact the base of your rose around the skewer so it stays on snug.

 
step 5: stick your skewer into a green straw. the straw will be shorter than the skewer- it's ok. just put the roses in a colored vase.




  

 
 



 

they turned out exactly as i had hoped for!
aren't they so delicious???
