White and milk chocolate covered strawberries recipe

What do you need to prepare these white and milk chocolate-covered strawberries?

The first step is making sure you have the correct type of chocolate. Wooden toothpicks to hold the strawberries.
Baking sheet, baking paper, and mixed nuts, shredded coconut, and pearl sugar for garnish. I used some disposable straws that I had in my pantry.

But first, you must wash them with water and apple vinegar. The vinegar cleans them so well that the strawberries shine after you dry them with a kitchen towel. At the end of this publication, I share my video where you can see how I do it.

Should strawberries be cold before dipping in chocolate?

Strawberries are a favorite treat for many people, especially when they are dipped in chocolate. But should you always keep your strawberries cold before dipping them in chocolate? This is an important question for anyone who wants to make the perfect white and milk chocolate–covered strawberry.

The answer is yes, you should always keep your strawberries cold before dipping them in chocolate. Keeping the strawberries cold helps preserve the shape and texture of the strawberry, allowing them to retain their shape when dipped in chocolate. The cold temperature also helps the chocolate set quickly, giving you a perfectly covered strawberry in no time.

In addition, cold strawberries are less likely to soak up the chocolate as they are dipped in it. This means that you can use less chocolate and still get the perfect amount of coating. Cold strawberries also prevent the chocolate from melting too quickly, which can ruin your masterpiece.

What is the best melting chocolate for strawberries?

For many people, strawberries and chocolate are a classic combination that is always a hit. But when it comes to melting chocolate to dip strawberries in, it can be difficult to know which kind will give you the best results.

The best chocolate to use for melting is one that is specifically designed for that purpose. Look for chocolate that is labeled “melting chocolate” or “couverture chocolate”. These specially–designed chocolates are higher in cocoa butter, which makes them melt more smoothly and evenly.

How to melt chocolate correctly

When melting chocolate, you should always use a double boiler. This allows the heat of the boiling water to gently melt the chocolate without burning it. It is also important to stir the chocolate often while it is melting, as this will help it to melt evenly.

When it comes to the type of chocolate to use, there are many options. Dark chocolate is a classic choice, as it has a rich and intense flavor. Milk chocolate is sweeter, and is a great choice for those who don’t like the bitter taste of dark chocolate. White chocolate is sweeter still, and has a creamy flavor that pairs well with strawberries.

No matter which type of chocolate you choose, make sure it is of good quality. High–quality chocolate will have a richer flavor, and will also melt more smoothly.

When it comes to melting chocolate for strawberries, there is no one–size–fits–all answer. The best melting chocolate for you will depend on your own personal taste and preference. Experiment with different types of chocolate to find the perfect combination for you.

How do you get melted chocolate to stick to strawberries?

Strawberries are a classic pairing with chocolate, but getting melted chocolate to stick to the strawberries can be a tricky task.

Fortunately, there are some simple techniques you can use to make sure your chocolate–covered strawberries turn out perfect every time.

Once you have your chocolate, you can melt it in a double boiler or in the microwave. If you‘re using the microwave, it‘s best to melt it in short bursts and stir it to prevent burning.

If you want the chocolate to stick to the strawberries, you‘ll need to let them cool. Once the chocolate is set, you can remove the skewer and enjoy.

To make sure the chocolate stays put, you can also dip the strawberry into crushed walnuts or shredded coconut before the chocolate sets. This will add an extra layer of decoration and help ensure that your chocolate–covered strawberries look perfect every time.

EQUIPMENT

  • Baking paper

  • Heart-shaped plates. Optional







 

Instructions



  1. Wash the strawberries with water and apple cider vinegar.



  2. Be sure to dry them well; they must be completely dry. The water will prevent the chocolate from sticking to the strawberry.



  3. Return the strawberries to the refrigerator to chill.



  4. Insert the toothpicks to hold the strawberries. Introduce them from the green leaves without transferring the strawberry.



  5. Line the baking sheet with parchment, wax paper, or parchment paper



  6. Using a heatproof bowl, microwave the white chocolate and add the coconut oil, stirring every 15 seconds, until melted and completely melted and glossy.



  7. Holding the strawberry by the stem, dip it into the chocolate, turning to coat. Lift and drop the excess chocolate and let the strawberry rest on the tray you covered with parchment paper.



  8. Decorate as soon as possible with the shredded coconut, nuts mix, and pearl sugar so that the garnish sticks to the chocolate that is still wet.



  9. Wait 30 minutes for the chocolate to set, or place the strawberries in the fridge for 15 minutes to speed up the process



  10. Proceed to melt the dark chocolate and repeat the same instructions to the white chocolate.



  11. Holding the strawberry by the stem, dip it into the chocolate, turning to coat. Lift and drop the excess chocolate and let the strawberry rest on the tray you covered with parchment paper.



  12. Decorate as soon as possible so that the garnish sticks to the chocolate that is still wet. 



  13. Wait 30 minutes for the chocolate to set or put the strawberries in the fridge for 15 minutes to speed up the process.



  14. Enjoy them the same day, which is when they are best. However, they keep perfectly in the refrigerator for up to 1 or 2 days.



Notes



  • Follow all the instructions



  • For best result I recommend Ghirardelli Chocolate in both flavors.



  • I prefer to use bittersweet or semi–sweet chocolate.



  • Dip the strawberries, and put the topping immediately after you‘ve dipped them in the melted chocolate
