Over the past few years, rose bears have quietly become one of the best-performing products in the gift and floral category—especially in international markets like the U.S. and Europe. For gift shop owners, supermarket chains, eCommerce sellers, and brand managers, these bear-shaped arrangements offer a unique opportunity to diversify your product lineup with something that’s both emotionally resonant and visually striking.
So, what exactly is a rose bear? In short, it’s a teddy bear silhouette formed entirely from artificial roses, typically crafted using PE foam flowers and mounted on a lightweight mold. They’re a symbol of affection, popular with consumers year-round but especially in Q1 holiday windows like Valentine’s Day and Mother’s Day.
Let’s explore everything a professional buyer needs to know to decide whether rose bears are the right fit for your catalog.
1. How Rose Bears Are Made?
The production of rose bears requires careful hand assembly combined with quality materials. Each unit starts with a pre-formed foam mold, then hundreds of artificial PE roses are individually glued onto the surface.
Are They Made with Real Flowers?
No, rose bears are not made with real or preserved roses. They use high-quality PE foam roses, which look realistic but are much more durable and cost-effective.
What Materials Are Needed?
- Pre-molded foam bear base
- PE foam artificial roses
- Industrial-strength glue
- Decorative add-ons: bows, heart inserts, packaging boxes
How Many Roses Are Used?
Quantities depend on size:
- 25cm bears: ~200 roses
- 40cm bears: 450-500 roses
Our factories produce bears at scale while preserving the attention to detail that customers expect.
