Chocolate Dipped Strawberries White Drizzle (Printable)

Fresh strawberries dipped in dark chocolate with a delicate white chocolate drizzle—an impressive yet simple elegant treat.

# Ingredient List:

→ Fruit

01 - 20 large fresh strawberries with stems, washed and thoroughly dried

→ Chocolate

02 - 7 oz dark chocolate (60–70% cocoa), chopped or in chips
03 - 1.75 oz white chocolate, chopped or in chips

→ Optional Garnishes

04 - 2 tbsp chopped pistachios, toasted coconut, or sprinkles

# Directions:

01 - Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Ensure strawberries are completely dry to prevent chocolate from seizing.
02 - Place dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a pot of barely simmering water using the double boiler method. Stir until smooth. Alternatively, microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring between intervals.
03 - Holding each strawberry by the stem, dip into the melted dark chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Place on the prepared baking sheet.
04 - Place the tray in the refrigerator for 10 minutes, or until the dark chocolate is completely set.
05 - Melt the white chocolate using the same double boiler or microwave method as the dark chocolate, stirring until smooth.
06 - Transfer melted white chocolate to a small piping bag or a zip-top bag with the corner snipped off. Drizzle over the set dark chocolate-dipped strawberries in a zigzag pattern.
07 - Immediately sprinkle optional garnishes over the white drizzle before it sets.
08 - Chill strawberries for another 5–10 minutes until the white drizzle is firm. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

# Expert Tips:

01 -
  • These gorgeous treats require just three ingredients but look like you spent hours crafting them—perfect for when you want to impress without the stress.
  • The contrast between the cold, juicy berry and the snappy chocolate shell creates that magical texture combination that somehow feels both homey and luxurious at the same time.
02 -
  • After ruining a batch early on, I discovered that even the tiniest drop of water will make your chocolate seize into a grainy mess—so don't skip thoroughly drying the berries.
  • I once learned the hard way that refrigerating the berries for too long (overnight) causes condensation when you take them out, which ruins the beautiful finish of the chocolate.
03 -
  • When piping the white chocolate drizzle, hold your bag about 6 inches above the berries and move quickly—the height creates thinner, more elegant lines while the speed keeps them consistent.
  • After countless batches, I've discovered that tempering the dark chocolate by reserving and reincorporating a quarter of it after melting gives you that professional glossy finish and satisfying snap that elevates the entire experience.
