“Dressed Up” Chocolate Dipped Strawberries (Bride and Groom)

The tuxedos would be perfect for Valentine’s day and the bride and groom combination would be great for bridal showers or on a dessert platter at a wedding. This idea appears on many websites including the Wilton website. Do an image search of “tuxedo strawberries” and you will see what I mean. Max is not much of a fruit eater (only apples and blueberries) but he gobbled down one of these and said it was good. Chocolate makes everything better!

Glad to help! We found it was better because the chocolate ran back up the strawberry and then you did not need to re dip it. Thanks again for your wonderful posts you have a big following in south Australia a group of 11 year olds regularly talk about your posts and the stuff they have made from them. :)

@Teamlolly1 What a great idea! I was finding that when I put them down, the “best” side of the strawberry wasn’t necessarily the one facing directly up

@warriorcats4ever100 They taste pretty much like sugar

When I make these I put the strawberries on a skewer
through the stem then when you have dipped them you place the skewer in a glass and the strawberry dosn’t touch anything and get any flat marks. Then you can choose the best side to display and it is heaps less messy. Thank you for your wonderful decorating ideas you have inspired my daughter and myself on our cupcake decorating journey :)

This is such a nice Idea not just for valentines day.
If you use glacé or chocolate in different colors you can do lots of different dresses. Perfect for a brunch I think.

Silver and gold are mild anti-microbial agents in small amounts. In the past, royalty used gold utensils, plates and cups because it would ward off some bacteria from tainted food due to lack of refrigeration. That is why we use silverware to this day. Thank you for sharing this cute-tastic, fruit-tastic edible art!

@Elya266 People eat gold leaf in fancy desserts and it is included in certain liqueurs. They are non-toxic.

But even if the balls are edible, it has metal so it is not advisable if you it.
