The steps we take before handoff, plus university extension guidance for caring for flowers once they reach home.
A clean vase, a fresh trim of the stem ends, flower food used as directed, and regular water checks help a cut-flower bouquet look its best. Iowa State University Extension also recommends keeping the vase away from heat and drafts.
We arrange Baked & Bouquets bouquets by hand the day before handoff and hold the stems in flower-food water overnight. This is our preparation, not a promise of a fixed vase life or a home-care temperature recommendation.
Our flowers are curated by season, freshness, availability, and the Baked & Bouquets aesthetic. No specific variety is guaranteed. The article distinguishes our preparation from general recipient-care guidance.
