Strawberry Roses

Supplies Needed:

  • Strawberry
  • Knife *Parental Guidance is needed*
  • Fork

Step 1

Push the fork into the base of the strawberry with the tip of the strawberry pointing outward. Slightly bent strawberries are best for the desired effect.
 

 

Step 2

Create the first petal by slicing downward into the base of the berry. Be sure to not make the petal too big, as you’ll still need to create a few more petals on the base.

 

 

 

Step 3

With the knife still in the strawberry, lightly twist the blade sideways to fan the petal outwards. Try rolling the tip of the petal for a more accurate rose petal look.

 

Step 4

Repeat steps two and three around the base of the strawberry. You are aiming for four petals in the base but don’t worry if you have more or less, every rose is unique!
 

 

 

Step 5

Use the same techniques to cut a second tier of petals in the strawberry. Alternate spacing between your bottom row.. 

 

 

Step 6

Lastly, complete your strawberry rose by adding a slice straight downward into the top of the berry. This should be a shallow cut.

 

 

 

Step 7

Voila, you have made a strawberry rose! Make as many as you want and share with your friends!
