1/4 cup crushed nuts, sprinkles, or pearl sugar
20 skewers or wooden sticks
1 floral foam or Styrofoam ball
1 small decorative pot or vase
Instructions
1. Wash and pat dry all strawberries. Make sure they are fully dry before dipping.

3. Skewer each strawberry and dip into your chosen chocolate. Tap to remove excess.
4. Immediately add toppings or drizzle with contrasting chocolate.
5. Place dipped strawberries on parchment to set. Let them harden at room temp or in the fridge.

Always ensure strawberries are completely dry before dipping.
Use tempered or high-quality chocolate for a glossy, professional finish.
Decorate immediately while chocolate is wet so toppings stick well.
