Edible CenterpiecesEdible centerpieces are great because as well as making the tables look pretty they are also great to snack on as a guest! Bizarrely not every edible centerpiece is made to be eaten, some are there to just look good. Platters of fruit with added sparkle made from egg white and sugar or luxurious gold leaf look stunning but are best not eaten! These platters have a Roman banquet feel to them and are great for a centerpiece to a buffet table or a large dining table. 
You can also make fruit and vegetables into flowers, leaves and birds. This is the norm in Thai restaurants making their food look extra special, but can be created fairly easily yourself. Practice makes perfect!You can also have fruit and vegetables added to
flower centerpieces
with the fruit added to vases or surrounding the flowers.
Fruit also looks great by itself, for simple clean centerieces look at citrus fruits piled into modern glass vases or dotted along the table. Coordinate your table linens to give a bright, fresh look to your tables. If you think your guests may get a bit hungry then a platter of beautiful hors d'oeuvres looks great and also helps them fight off starvation during any speeches at the beginning of a meal. For a fun centerpiece you can't go wrong with centerpiece candy , it could be bowls of your favorites, or jars filled with candy in your colors or create your own candy centerpieces with jellies! 
If you are looking for a fun wedding or birthday centerpiece that is edible have individual wedding cakes at each table or cupcakes for each of your guests - these also can be your placecards as well.As well as candy you can have your edible favors as part of the centerpiece. Display a pyramid of favor boxes filled with candy, or have a bowl or basket filled with the cookie favors. Just don't be too disappointed when they get eaten before home time - who knows anyone who can resist a homemade cookie? Lots Of Chocolate Centerpiece Ideas More Fruit CenterpiecesFruit Centerpieces
