Pro Tricks for Amazing Spooky Chocolate-Covered Strawberries
For the best results, select strawberries that are fresh, ripe, and firm. Avoid overripe strawberries as they
might be too soft and won’t hold up well when dipped in chocolate.
Perfect Chocolate Consistency
To ensure smooth dipping, melt your chocolate slowly using a double boiler or microwave in short bursts. Stir
frequently to avoid burning and to maintain a silky consistency.
Set Them Right
After dipping, place your strawberries on parchment paper to set. This prevents them from sticking and ensures
they maintain their shape. Allow them to cool completely for the chocolate to harden properly.
