Ingredients You’ll Need
You won’t believe how a short list of ingredients comes together to create something this elegant. Every element in these Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle has a purpose—quality berries bring juicy vibrancy, pink chocolate adds the wow factor, and the drizzle puts each bite over the top.
- Fresh strawberries: Pick berries with bright red color and intact green tops for the best flavor and easy dipping.
- Pink candy melts or pink-colored white chocolate: These give your strawberries the signature blush tone—use quality melts for the smoothest finish.
- White chocolate chips or white candy melts: Perfect for that elegant drizzle and a creamy, sweet topping.
- Coconut oil or shortening (optional): Stir in a little to your melted chocolate if you want a silkier dip and easier working texture.
How to Make Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle
Step 1: Prep Your Strawberries and Baking Sheet
Start by making sure your strawberries are completely dry after washing—any water will prevent the chocolate from sticking. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper; this will keep your dipped berries from sticking while they set.
Step 2: Melt the Pink Chocolate
Place your pink candy melts or chopped pink-colored white chocolate into a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring after each, until smooth and silky. If the chocolate seems thick, add a small spoonful of coconut oil or shortening to make dipping a cinch.
Step 3: Dip the Strawberries
Hold each strawberry firmly by the leafy stem and lower it into the melted pink chocolate. Twirl gently for an even coating and let any excess drip back into the bowl. Lay the coated strawberry on your prepared baking sheet so it can cool without rolling.
Step 4: Melt the White Chocolate for Drizzling
In another microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips or melts just like before—short bursts and plenty of stirring to avoid overheating. Pour the melted white chocolate into a piping bag or small zip-top bag (snip off a tiny corner), or simply use a spoon for drizzling.
Step 5: Drizzle and Set
Now for the finishing touch! Drizzle white chocolate over the pink-coated strawberries in zig-zags or swirls, depending on your mood. Let your Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle set out at room temperature for 15–20 minutes, or pop them in the fridge for an even quicker set.
How to Serve Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle
Garnishes
A sprinkle of pastel sprinkles, edible glitter, or crushed freeze-dried berries will take your Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle to the next level. Not only do these add a touch of sparkle, but they also lend fun textures and flavors with every bite.
Side Dishes
Pair these beauties with a glass of sparkling rosé, vanilla whipped cream, or even a platter of fresh fruits like blueberries and pineapple. Light, crisp accompaniments truly let the sweet, juicy flavor of the strawberries and chocolate shine through.
Creative Ways to Present
Arrange your Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle in neat rows on a platter for an elegant look, or layer them in clear gift boxes for a gorgeous homemade present. Skewer each strawberry and serve bouquet-style for a playful party centerpiece!
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
Store your Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle in an airtight container lined with paper towels, and keep them in the refrigerator. The paper towel helps absorb any extra moisture so the chocolate stays crisp and delicious for up to 2 days.
Freezing
While it’s best to enjoy these strawberries fresh, you can freeze them for longer storage. Arrange the finished berries in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to an airtight container. Just know the texture of the strawberries will change a bit after thawing.
Reheating
There’s no reheating required for these delightful treats! If your Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle have been stored in the fridge and feel extra cold, just let them sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes for the best flavor and feel.
FAQs
Can I use regular white chocolate and tint it pink?
Yes! Just melt white chocolate and stir in a few drops of oil-based food coloring for a custom blush shade. Be careful, though—water-based dyes can seize the chocolate, so always use candy color or powdered colorants for the best results.
How do I prevent the chocolate from sliding off the strawberries?
Make sure your strawberries are 100 percent dry—this is key! Moisture causes the coating to slip, so pat each berry carefully and let them air-dry before dipping. Also, avoid touching the strawberries too much once dipped so the chocolate sets evenly.
Can I add extra decorations?
Absolutely! Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle are made for customization; try heart-shaped sprinkles, colorful nonpareils, or even a dusting of edible gold for a festive touch that fits your occasion.
What if I don’t have a microwave?
You can easily melt both chocolates using a double boiler on the stove. Place your bowl of chocolate over a saucepan of gently simmering water, stirring until smooth. Take care that no water touches the chocolate, which can cause it to seize.
Are these gluten-free and vegetarian?
Yes! Pink Chocolate Strawberries with White Chocolate Drizzle are naturally gluten-free and vegetarian, as long as you double-check your candy melts and chocolate chips for hidden ingredients.
