Fruit Expressions creates expertly sculpted bouquets from real fruit and other delectables such as chocolate, marshmallows, and almonds. Gift-givers can browse a wide selection of fruit bouquets to find the ideal gift for events such as birthdays, weddings, and pollen allergy conventions. Give the gift of edible elegance with the strawberry vase, which dips a bouquet of 12 plump strawberries in the customer's choice of dark, white, or milk chocolate before spiking the berries onto skewers and presenting them in a glass vase ($29.95 for pick-up, $41.95 for delivery). Fruit Expressions’ melon Michelangelos whip up a parade of more flatteringly shaped fruit with smaller creations such as the Coffee Mug 2 ($29 for pick-up, $41 for delivery), which plants carved melon and pineapple pieces alongside dipped strawberries held together by the warm embrace of a white coffee mug. Customers can also give dessert tables or pool tables an imaginative centerpiece with the intricately pared watermelon flower, a rounded eruption of seedless, two-tone petals ($40 for pick-up, $52 for delivery). Fruit bouquets typically last 24–36 hours if kept in a refrigerator without any hungry bears.
