If you still can't find it, you might still have time to grow your very own grass using just regular grass seed. But you would need to start it right now, indoors. Note: Please don't eat your regular grass seed once it's sprouted.
It also looks very cute in the SA Small Bowls.
Have fun!

Quick Tip – Show EnhancerChefBeckyD said:Okay - so now I'm curious....what was the Canadian tip?
Director Jennifer Adams has found a fabulous way to feature our Trifle Bowl. After her demo, while guests are perusing their catalogues and making their purchasing decisions, Jennifer quickly builds a trifle. She layers brownies cut into small pieces, then chocolate pudding, then cool whip sprinkled with crushed score bars. She then slices strawberries using our Egg Slicer Plus® and stands them up around the sides of the Trifle Bowl. She repeats the layers again and garnishes with more strawberries. Easy to do and a real show stopper - Jennifer sold six Trifle Bowls to guests when she did this. Great idea ... Jennifer is going to offer this as an add-on when her hosts have fifteen guests in attendance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a trifle bowl and how can I use it for Easter decorations?

What materials do I need to create the trifle bowl decoration?
To create the trifle bowl decoration, you will need a trifle bowl, decorative grass (real or artificial), and eggs (plastic, chocolate, or dyed hard-boiled eggs). Optional items include flowers or other spring-themed decorations to enhance the look.
How do I layer the grass and eggs in the trifle bowl?
Start by placing a layer of decorative grass at the bottom of the trifle bowl. Then, arrange the eggs on top of the grass. You can alternate layers of grass and eggs to create a visually appealing display. Finish with a final layer of grass on top to cover any gaps.
Can I use this trifle bowl decoration for other occasions besides Easter?
