Cute Quick Tip: Trifle Bowl with Grass & Eggs

[jrstephens]

I thought the Quick Tip for the Trifle Bowl with grass and eggs was very cute. I think if I can find the grass, I am going to that at my shows this weekend.

I was thinking about that too...

I think it's a great idea and I'll be taking one for easter when we go visit family....they can book to look hopefully! And it should make a great table centerpiece that no one eats and can travel from family to family as we go (all weekend long).

That's how I feel too Leah! There are so many cute decorating ideas out there - but I'm always using it for food!!!

Where To Find WheatgrassWheatgrass should be available in your Organic Produce section. That is, if you have an Organic Produce section. : ) I live in Olympia, WA... I tend to forget the rest of the country isn't always as organic friendly.

Some florists and floral departments even carry it this time of year.

Other places to check might be: Food Co-Op, Health Foods Store, "Juice Bars"

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!

Here it is:
Quick Tip
Celebrate spring by creating this attractive centerpiece! Gently place a 3-inch tall pot of wheatgrass in center of Trifle Bowl. Fill Trifle Bowl with colored Easter grass, surrounding the pot of wheatgrass. Gently place small pastel-colored foil-wrapped candies in Easter grass. Wheatgrass can be found in the produce section of most major grocery stores.

I too could use a 2nd trifle bowl, for shows and for decorating! Hmm, may have to purchase one soon!

Quick Tip – Show Enhancer
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.

PS I Love the Canadian tip...
