Step 1

Insert the skewer into the bottom of the strawberry (where the leaves are)

Step 2

With the pointed end of the strawberry upwards, you are ready to start carving!

Step 3

Starting at the bottom, make a small slit but do not cut all the way through.

Step 4

Use your knife to very gently curl the tip of the "petal" by pressing it back.

Step 5

This is your first petal!

Step 6

Repeat on the other 3 sides of the strawberry until you have four "petals" at the base of the strawberry.

Step 7

Now let's make another row!

Step 8

Starting above the row you just made, between two petals, make another slit.

Step 9

Curl the petal back gently.

Step 10

Repeat on the other 3 sides of the strawberry.

Step 11

To finish the rose, make a slit down the tip and press back gently to curl the tips.
