These Chocolate Covered Strawberry Ideas for Valentine's Day will help you to decorate your berries in a fun and entertaining way without breaking the bank. Yes — you could just buy them, but if you are on a budget like me this year, it is cheaper and more fun to do it yourself. Visit Best Valentine's Day Recipes for more inspiration.
If you want a plain jane version, simply dip in chocolate and let it set before giving them to your significant other. But if you want to really make them look like berries you get from the flower shops and bakeries, here are a few tips to help you!
How to Decorate Chocolate Covered Strawberries
When making chocolate covered strawberries, you can do a basic drizzle on yours like I do, but you can also get very creative and upscale with it. I have even been known to make Chocolate Covered Strawberry Ghosts for Halloween.
For drizzling purposes, you can use —
- Chocolate Chips
- Melting wafers
- almond bark
- caramels
Once you drizzle them, feel free to add fun Valentine's sprinkles to them or minced chopped nuts.
You can also go back and re-drizzle them after dipping them if you want. Once they are dry, put them in these mini cupcake liners or in large cupcake liners before putting them in the decorative box.
I give mine to friends in family in these fun boxes.
