Isn't this the best spring/summer treat? I mean besides fried clams, greasy hamburgers, and ice cream? OK, they're all the best really. Who doesn't love a good chocolate covered strawberry? And with spring here that means the jumbo sized strawberries are in abundance! They are truly perfect for dipping in chocolate. Every year I dip strawberries in high quality dark chocolate and then have one or four with ice cold champagne. What a good combo!
I prefer mine in a dark chocolate. You? Pineapple is also good dipped in chocolate. Marshmallows too, apples, pears, grapes (the dark ones are really good), blueberries are hard to dip, I just get all kinds of messy trying to fish out my blueberries--not a good scene.
And how cute is this one?
I love chocolate-covered strawberries! The best I ever had were the ones waiting for my husband and I on our honeymoon at the Four Seasons... served with champagne, of course. Yours looks scrumptious :).
ReplyDeleteTHESE LOOK PERFECT!!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteAwww, I love that daddy, momma, baby picture. The sweetest strawberries I ever did see :)

This is definitely one of my most favorite desserts! Pineapple sounds fantastic too. The plantation down the road is having you pick strawberries right now...I'm thinking these might be a required dessert next weekend. Have a good evening
ReplyDeletelove. jumbo. strawberries. in chocolate!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part of chocolate covered strawberries is when I convince myself of all of their health benefits. And then eat a whole quart of them. So much fun. Plus sprinkles make most things in life better...these are so cute! But I'm kind of surprised that you didn't dip them in salt. :P
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to figure out if there's a successful way to dip a blueberry. A fork? A spork? Strawberries make much more sense. Yum!
ReplyDeleteLove the happy little family shot. I just want to eat their faces off.
ReplyDeleteDaddy.. mama..baby..you are a dork. But a damn cute dork that I love to pieces! I love me some chocolate covered strawberries.
ReplyDeleteI actually hate chocolate and fruit unless it is strawberries. Lovely
ReplyDeleteChocolate covered strawberries are the best! YUM!
ReplyDeleteI love making chocolate covered strawberries. Word to the wise (and I had to learn this the hard way): make sure the berries are dry before dipping otherwise the chocolate doesn't stick. Love the idea of putting sprinkles on top!!
ReplyDeleteI can't think of a fruit not made better by dipping in dark chocolate
ReplyDeleteWith sprinkles too?! Those look wonderful. It's been a rough winter of icky, unripe strawberries... I can't wait for summertime ones.
ReplyDeleteLove the sprinkles you added to these delicious little treats.
ReplyDeletehaha, mama strawberry has hips :) lol. pineapple in chocolate? i'm intrigued... strawberries will probably always be my fav!

ReplyDeletei'm the baby! i love the sprinkles--so festive.
ReplyDeleteI have been going nuts for strawberries lately. I never even think to dip them in anything but sugar. Thanks for the reminder that it would be so easy and fun, and tasty, to cover them in chocolate.
ReplyDeleteAwww, what a cute little family. Chocolate covered strawberries are my favorite :)
ReplyDeleteSo pretty and delicious! I could eat the whole plate of them by myself.
