Winnie the Pooh Bee Tree Centerpiece

If there is one thing we know about Winnie the Pooh, it’s that he simply can’t resist a pot of honey. Inspired by Pooh Bear’s love of sweet treats, we created this adorable Winnie the Pooh Bee Tree edible centerpiece for our Hundred Acre Wood party. This playful display looks like a buzzing honey tree filled with sweet donut holes and cheerful candy bees. Not only does it make a charming centerpiece for a Winnie the Pooh party, baby shower, or themed brunch, but it also doubles as a fun dessert that guests can enjoy throughout the celebration.

How to Make a Winnie the Pooh Bee Tree

This centerpiece is surprisingly simple to create and comes together in just a few minutes with a few inexpensive supplies.

Supplies

8-inch styrofoam cone
Beige tissue paper
Toothpicks
Donut holes
Small candy bees (or bee decorations)
Florist wire
Hot Glue Gun
Scissors

Instructions

Wrap the styrofoam cone with beige tissue paper to blend in color with the donut holes. Secure the paper with tape or hot glue.
Insert toothpicks evenly around the cone, spacing them about 1 1/2-inches apart.
Place a donut hole onto each toothpick so the cone becomes covered with sweet “honey treats.”
Attach small candy bees to pieces of florist wire using hot glue.
Insert the wire into the cone so the bees appear to be buzzing around the tree.
Place the finished Bee Tree on your table as a centerpiece where guests can easily grab a sweet treat.

Tips and Tricks

Use fresh donut holes so they stay soft and delicious during the party.
For a more decorative base, place the Bee Tree on a cake stand or wooden serving board.
This centerpiece works beautifully as both décor and dessert, making it perfect for baby showers, birthday parties, spring brunches, or a Winnie the Pooh themed picnic.
