Sugar Sweet 16 Corsage by Nature’s Corner Florist, Anderson SC
“..Had a request for a Sweet 16 corsage with pink flowers and SIXTEEN sugar cubes… Needless to say, we were sort of concerned about the sheer size (amongst other things). We did, however, find miniature sugar cubes and opted for a smaller-gauged bullion wire (rather than chunky chenille stems) and it turned out to be quite lovely, really. Is this something that other florists are accustomed to making? 3 generations of flower shop family here.. and we’ve never heard of such a thing. The customer was from Florida.”

Joanie, we are a network of local florists. You can go to our florist finder and contact a florist in your area that should be able to help you!
With regards to your Sweet 16 rosebud and sugar cube corsage, your customer might have lived in Florida, but I’ll bet s/he has ties to the northern east coast. I grew up in northern New Jersey and turned 16 in 1964 when sugar cube corsages were all the rage. If you turned 16 on a weekday in HS, you wore one of these beauties to school all day. Another rage was a similar corsage fitted with mini dog biscuits, for either your 15th or 17th birthday – can’t remember which. Your corsage is lovely. It would be a wonderful tradition to start allover again.
