What is a Bacon Bouquet
Bacon makes everything better in my opinion and who wouldn’t smile when they receive an edible bouquet made of bacon.
If there’s one thing you should get for your significant other, it’s a bacon bouquet.
This is the meat equivalent of dozen roses and will definitely brighten their day!
They roll up into little rosettes that make them perfect as an unexpected Valentine’s Day gift or any other romantic occasion where something sweet might be desired (think: dinner at home).
How to Make Bacon Roses Bouquet
On each piece of bacon, coat liberally with brown sugar.
In a bowl mix the remaining seasonings together for the seasoning mixture.
Sprinkle bacon with the mixture.
Roll the bacon from one to the other to form a rosebud.
Stick two toothpicks through the blade of the roll perpendicular to each other.
Bake in the air fryer basket at 400 for 10 minutes.
Let cool and place the bud on the tip of a faux rose stem.
