This adorable project from the Instructables blog is not only beautiful to look at, but also delicious to eat. Everything is edible including the flowers, with the exception of the jar.
All you need to make these treats is some chocolate cake mix, chocolate icing, Oreo's and some edible flowers. Aside from the baking ingredients, you will need some mason jars, scissors and colorful ribbon. It's super easy to put these together as you simply bake the cakes in the jars and once cooled you cover them with chocolate icing.
To top it off you have to crush the Oreo's into small pieces and sprinkle it on top of the icing, which gives it the mud effect. Lastly, you add the edible flowers or plastic ones if you please to make it appear as if it's a flower pot. This is a great idea for Mother's Day or for any special occasion.
