Last year, everyone's favorite triangular chip brand released 'Ketchup Roses,' a bouquet of faux flowers that were made out of the savory snack. This year, just in time for Valentine's Day, the brand is gearing up to bring the popular novelty item back.
Available to Canadian consumers, the bouquets can be ordered through the chip brand at doritosketchuproses.ca. Those who sign up to get the Ketchup Roses have the option to have them hand-delivered as well, making them the perfect surprise gift.
To create the bouquet, the brand fastens multiple chips together on the end of a plastic flower stem. With the ketchup flavor providing the exterior of the snack with a red finish, they look like a regular bouquet from a distance. Although traditional roses are always appreciated on the romantic holiday, Doritos' version is definitely more memorable.
