How to Make Pink Chocolate Covered Strawberries

Making these is as simple as taking 5 minutes to melt the chocolate with coconut oil, add a touch of dye, and then dip clean strawberries. Let them chill on a baking sheet then serve. So easy!

Step 1: Wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries with paper towels.

Step 2: Combine white chocolate chips and a tablespoon of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 30-second intervals until melted. Stir in pink food coloring until you achieve the desired shades of pink.

Step 3: Dip the strawberries in the pink chocolate and lay them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Step 4: While the chocolate is still wet, decorate with sprinkles, pink edible glitter, and white pearls.

Step 5: Use cake icing in a small piping bag to add decorative accents to the strawberries.

Step 6: Allow them to set in the refrigerator for at least 15-30 minutes until the chocolate has hardened.

Recipe notes

• Properly Dry Strawberries: Before dipping, ensure the strawberries are completely dry so that the chocolate will stick.
• Quick Decoration: Apply the decorations while the chocolate is still wet to also make sure that the sprinkles stay on
• Use High-Quality Chocolate: It melts smoother and tastes better.
• Thinning the Chocolate: The thinner the chocolate, the better it covers. Continue to microwave and/or add coconut oil as needed. Don't skip the coconut oil, the berries will be thick and goopy.
• Use Toothpicks: Insert toothpicks at the top of strawberries for a better grasp while dipping and decorating.
• Wear Gloves: This will help keep your hands clean while working with the chocolate.
