A simple and stunning treat of fresh strawberries dipped in smooth white chocolate and decorated with soft pastel sprinkles, perfect for parties and casual get-togethers.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound (450 grams) fresh strawberries, washed and dried thoroughly
  • 8 ounces (225 grams) white chocolate chips or melting wafers (preferably high-quality like Ghirardelli or Callebaut)
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil or vegetable oil (optional, for smoothness and glossy finish)
  • 2 tablespoons pastel sprinkles (soft, non-crunchy)
  • Parchment paper or silicone mat (for setting dipped strawberries)

Instructions

  1. Wash 1 pound (450 grams) of fresh strawberries gently under cold water. Pat completely dry with paper towels or a clean kitchen cloth (about 10 minutes).
  2. Melt 8 ounces (225 grams) of white chocolate chips or melting wafers in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (double boiler). Stir occasionally until smooth. Stir in 1 teaspoon of coconut or vegetable oil for a shinier finish (5-7 minutes).
  3. Hold each strawberry by the stem or use a fork/dipping tool. Dip into the melted chocolate, swirling to coat evenly. Let excess drip off gently back into the bowl (10-15 minutes for all berries).
  4. Immediately after dipping each strawberry, sprinkle pastel sprinkles over the chocolate before it sets.
  5. Place dipped strawberries on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or silicone mat. Let them set at room temperature or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes. Avoid stacking or overcrowding.
  6. Once set, serve immediately or store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Avoid freezing.

Notes

Ensure strawberries are completely dry before dipping to prevent chocolate from seizing or sliding off. Melt white chocolate slowly and gently to avoid graininess. Add coconut or vegetable oil for a glossy finish. Add sprinkles immediately after dipping while chocolate is still warm. Store dipped strawberries in a single layer in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 2 days. Avoid freezing.
