  • Total Time: 25 minutes
  • Yield: 15 chocolate-covered strawberries 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 15 large fresh strawberries (washed and dried completely)
  • 200g Belgian milk chocolate (chopped or chips)
  • 100g Belgian white chocolate (optional, for drizzling)
  • 2 tbsp crushed pistachios
  • 1 tbsp edible rose petals (dried)
  • 1 tsp edible gold leaf or gold dust (optional)
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil (for smoother melting)
  • Parchment paper (for lining)
  • Skewers or toothpicks (optional, for dipping)

Instructions

  • Prep the Strawberries
    Gently wash and thoroughly dry the strawberries. They must be completely dry or the chocolate will not stick properly.
  • Melt the Chocolate
    Place the milk chocolate and coconut oil in a heatproof bowl. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth. Alternatively, use a double boiler.
  • Dip the Strawberries
    Hold each strawberry by the stem or with a skewer and dip it into the melted chocolate. Let the excess drip off.
  • Decorate
    Immediately sprinkle crushed pistachios or rose petals on the wet chocolate. For gold dust, use a soft brush once the chocolate sets.
  • Add a White Chocolate Drizzle (Optional)
    Melt the white chocolate the same way and drizzle it over the coated strawberries using a spoon or piping bag.
  • Set the Chocolate
    Place dipped strawberries on parchment-lined tray. Refrigerate for 15–20 minutes until the chocolate is firm.
  • Serve or Package
    Serve chilled or package in elegant boxes for gifting.

Notes

  • Storage: Best consumed within 24 hours. Refrigerate in an airtight container if needed.
  • Customization: Try dark chocolate, ruby chocolate, or even vegan chocolate alternatives.
  • Pro Tip: Use tempered chocolate if you want a crispier shell with a glossy finish.
