Bae Doesn't Like Flowers? Get A Corn Bouquet Or These Other Unconventional Options For Valentine's Day 2021

4 min read

Don’t let the boisterous Chinese New Year music on repeat in malls around Singapore distract you from another special occasion that’s just around the corner — Valentine’s Day.

While many of us have probably been caught up in our preparations for the Lunar New Year, it isn’t too late to start planning for the romantic holiday. Besides having a fancy candlelit meal and exchanging gifts, another common gesture is to get flowers for your date.

Despite there being a plethora of bouquet options in the market, you may want to consider getting your boo something a little more unique than the regular roses and baby’s breath, especially if they don’t fancy flowers themselves.

We have a few options that you can consider, including a very practical corn bouquet, a bouquet made of chocolates and even money bouquets.

Money Bouquets, Corn Bouquets & More Unique Options For Valentine’s

1. Cotton Candy Bouquet

If your partner has a sweet tooth and loves pastel colours, the Butterfly Bouquet ($48) from Cotton Dreams will be right up their alley.

Each bouquet comes with seven transparent baubles filled with cotton candy in assorted flavours, including grape, strawberry and White Rabbit candy.

A more extravagant option would be the Butterfly Queen ($118) which comes with 14 baubles. The entire bouquet is also topped off with a gorgeous butterfly crown.

3. Chocolate-Dipped Strawberries Bouquet

Did you know that strawberries are considered the symbol of Venus, also known as the goddess of love? So offering your partner a bouquet of strawberries is actually a rather romantic gesture.

You can get the Pinky Wish Chocoberry Flower Bouquet from Rainbowly which features their signature chocolate-coated strawberries that are arranged together with three stems of roses.

4. Fruit And Vegetables Bouquets

If your partner is a practical person who never knows what to do with wilting flowers, you can consider getting them a fruit or vegetable bouquet instead. Yes, these exist!

The CORNgratulations bouquet ($40) from Petal Artistry is a great way to congratulate them for having a date this Valentine’s Day.

Each bouquet comes with two cobs of corn and some celery. Here’s a post-Valentine’s Day date idea: make a soup with these vegetables for a healthy meal after that luxurious romantic dinner.

5. Chocolate Bar Bouquet

For partners who love snacking, especially on chocolates, this Chocolate Bouquet ($60) from Magical Blooms will be the perfect gift.
