Some girls claim they don’t want flowers for Valentine’s Day. Half the time, this is a lie.
It’s not that they don’t like flowers, but between the jacked up prices for V-day dinners, gifts, and bouquets, there’s just so much spending involved – all for one night. Some ladies, out of consideration for their boyfriends’ wallets, might vehemently insist that flowers are a “waste of money” since they just wilt in a couple of days.
But what if you could eat your bouquet after the whole shebang? Now that’s money put to good use. Made with items like chicken wings, fruits, and baked goodies, these edible bouquets for Valentine’s Day 2020 are every foodie girlfriend’s dream.

If soft pinks aren’t her thing, the red and black rose tea bouquet from Cotton Dreams might be up her alley with its goth vibe. The transparent plastic balls which make up this bundle contain 3 black preserved roses, 2 red preserved roses, and 3 portions of their organic loose-leaf Queen of Rose Tea, which you can brew whenever the cravings hit.

With proper care, these roses can last for up to 5 years! Definitely a worthy investment for the price you’re paying.
Top up $30 to add in a gift box with a DIY tea-brewing kit, which includes organic flower petals and a reusable glass bottle that’s shaped like that of Chanel No. 5’s. You can even opt for name customisation in swirly cursive text.

Many of us know of that viral story about a Singaporean man bringing his date to a fast food joint for Valentine’s Day – balloons, fancy tablecloth, and iced Milo in wine glasses included. Amazing indeed. All he was missing was a nugget bouquet to take the whole set-up to the next level.
You can get one from Golden Tulips Atelier, with a choice of 15, 20, 25, or 30 halal-cerfied nuggets. Of course, it’s more value-for-money with a larger quantity, so you might as well go all out.
Price: From $60
Delivery: From $18 (free self-collection)

The corn lies on a bed of vegetables instead of filler leaves – more to eat!

Now this one’s a little peculiar, and we’re not sure who would have such mad love for corn, but 10 points for quirkiness. If your lady needs an ear – or two – present her this CORNgratulations! bouquet by Petals Artistry and use it as a physical representation of how you’ll always be there to listen to her joys and woes 👂. Corn-y puns about how a-maize-ing she is, optional.
