Pro Tips 

Here are a few tips to make sure that these recipes turn out perfectly for you every time that you make them.

  • Instead of white chocolate, you could also use milk chocolate, dark chocolate or even semi-sweet chocolate depending on your tastebuds.
  • I recommend that you only make these strawberries about 12 hours before you need them. Because you are using fresh strawberries they can go bad quickly.
  • Make sure that you rinse and dry the strawberries well before you dip them.
  • You can change up the holiday theme on these strawberries by switching the sprinkles.
