Nothing says Valentine’s Day romance like showing up to your date with a bouquet and some kind of sweet. But what if you can have both in one? No, I’m not talking about Edible Arrangements or chocolate-covered fruit. I’m talking about Texas Roadhouse roll bouquets. Because why get a dozen roses when you can treat your, or your partner’s, taste buds to light fluffy rolls and a side of the beloved sweet honey cinnamon butter? Now, Texas Roadhouse doesn’t sell these, but thanks to some crafty people on social media, we know how to make them. Sure, it might take a little more time than buying a bouquet of flowers, but the hack will delight bread and butter lovers (and that can include yourself. We’re not judging) and probably cost less than a bouquet of real roses.
What is the Texas Roadhouse bread bouquet?
The Texas Roadhouse bread roll bouquet is exactly what it sounds like. The trend has people buying up the fan-favorite fluffy rolls from Texas Roadhouse (yes, you can buy just the rolls and butter) and packaging them up like a bouquet, complete with skewer stems, a decorative paper wrap, and cinnamon butter on the side (like plant food, but for bread). It’s a truly regal and romantic way to eat a restaurant’s bread rolls, that’s for sure!
How do you make a bread bouquet?
First things first, you have to pick up your rolls. A dozen costs $4.99 and that seemingly comes with one cup of honey cinnamon butter per half-dozen rolls. Depending on how much you like that butter, you can grab some extra for $2. Then, you’re going to need some skewers and some kind of wrapping. You could go for chic brown paper like you see on fancy floral bouquets, or more festive pink, red, or patterned tissue paper or both. Lastly, grab a ribbon to complete the look.
The assembly isn’t complicated. Lay out your wrapping and then stick each roll onto a skewer. Arrange your rolls in an upside down triangle, with the tip pointing down. Then, fold the bottom corners of your wrapping in. Add another layer of wrapping around that if you’d like before tying up the bouquet with ribbon. And voila! Now you have a tasty treat for your Valentine. If you were feeling particularly romantic, you could decorate the containers of butter too. Maybe with something like, roses are red, Texas Roadhouse’s rolls are buttery, you’re so sweet, you make my heart fluttery? Well, I’m no poet, but hey, you might be. Get creative with it!
