    I not only made this before for an Easter cake, but used it for my Daisy troops ‘fly’ up ceremony to Brownies and it was quite the talk 🙂

    I’ve made this before and it IS super easy! I had a problem with the peeps sliding off though, so I would use toothpicks or something to secure them on!

    I have made this before and used raspberries for the center (not a sunflower, but still cute). You can also use pink, blue or purple peeps and golden raspberries for the center too.

    You can also make this and use twinkies for the sunflower petals, I think it takes 2 boxes of twinkies and you will need a really large board or something to put it on.. it’s huge. But oh so cute!

    So cute, clever and affordable since all you’re really purchasing beyond “normal purchases” is the peeps!
