Main Ingredients
  • 1 pound fresh strawberries Look for plump, ripe strawberries that glisten in the light.

  • 1 cup green candy melts Perfect for adding those vibrant leaves or stems.
Tools & Accessories
  • 1 sheet parchment paper A must-have for easy setting.
  • 1 piece cone or small piece of green candy for stems (optional) This little detail can elevate your creation.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Wash and dry the strawberries thoroughly.
  2. Melt the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl.
  3. Dip each strawberry in the melted chocolate.
  4. Melt the orange candy melts in a separate bowl.
  5. Dip the chocolate-covered strawberries into the orange melts.
  6. Using a toothpick or a small tool, draw lines on the orange shell.
  7. Melt the green candy melts and create leaves or use green candy for stems.

Notes

Make sure your strawberries are fully dry for better chocolate adherence. Allow melted chocolate and candy melts to cool slightly before dipping to avoid a messy situation. For a festive touch, add a sprinkle of edible glitter on your pumpkins before the setting!
