Help! I just would like to know what everyone else uses as a base for their cookie bouquets. I've tried floral cones, which work good, except they are top heavy. Iv'e also used titissue paper to help steady them. Does anyone actually stick the the cookie stick into anything (like the cone) or are they just left to move around in the container. Any suggestions on something that's very inexpensive to use? Thanks for any suggestions!

I put mine in foam in a container. They don't move around at all

I take a half of a styrofoam circle that fits snuggly in the bottom of the container (glue if needed). Then fill the pot with pinto beans (or any kind that you have). Then put another styrofoam around the top of the container (fit snug). The cookie goes through all those pieces and they don't move!!!!

I'm also a dry styro-foam. We use the tissue paper to fill in the gaps and cover any exposed foam (in our picket fence containers). For mugs or cups, we also do the 1/2 styrofoam ball.
