With Valentine's Day quickly approaching, your customers are
likely requesting the classic, delicious chocolate covered strawberries. Have
you considered also creating something to satisfy those non-traditional
romantics?
We’ve compiled just a few ideas to add some fun and variety
to a tried and true favorite
Go Tropical - Cover your strawberries in
chocolate and then dip them in a tropical topping such as coconut, dried fruit
bits or even lime or lemon zest.
Pile it On – Many
confectioners create candy and caramel apples that are layered with goodness,
so why not apply the same principle to your strawberries. Maybe you could do a
layer of chocolate, then caramel and then sprinkle a few nuts.
Add Some Color –
Use colored sugar crystals to create a rainbow of strawberries. Dipping them in
white chocolate first will make the colors stand out but milk and dark
chocolate lovers might want some color, too.
Combine Classics
– Dip your strawberries in chocolate and then cover them in classic favorites
such as sprinkles, chocolate morsels (for those ultimate chocoholics), cinnamon
red hots or candy bar pieces.
