First, make sure you have properly prepared the strawberries using the vinegar bath method. Then, line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Next, combine the chocolate chips (or melts) and coconut oil in the candy melt pot and melt them together until completely mixed. Then transfer the melted chocolate to a large glass bowl for dipping. Silicone spatulas are perfect for stirring the chocolate while it heats up!
To make the candy drizzle, rinse out the lining of the candy melt pot and repeat the melting process for the pink or white colored candies and remaining coconut oil.
Then, transfer the melted-colored candies to separate piping bags and tie each one off with a bag tie. Cut about ⅛ inch from the tip of the bag for easy drizzling.
Next, dip the strawberries in the bowl of melted chocolate and then gently transfer them to the parchment-lined baking sheet.
Immediately decorate the chocolate-covered strawberries with sprinkles and hearts while the chocolate is still wet!
Finish decorating the chocolate-dipped strawberries with the pink or white colored candy drizzles.
Finally, transfer the decorated strawberries to the fridge and let them sit for 1 hour before serving.After setting, serve the chocolate strawberries in small cupcake liners to make them easier to eat or package up.
