Chocolate covered strawberries bouquet?

I want to make a bouquet of chocolate covered strawberries. I need instructions and what to buy including the brand names. I will be making the whole thing using white, pink, and regular chocolate including buying the vase and little forks to hold them up and what to poke them into.

Chocolate covered strawberries bouquet?
Take whole strawberries, don't remove the green tops and wash them carefully. They have to be SUPER fresh. Buy some cadburies dark chocolate, and white chocolate chips, and some red food colouring. Melt the dark and dip 1/3 of the strawberries in, set aside on baking paper to set at room temperature. Melt the white choc and dip 1/3 and set again. with the remaining white chocolate put a drop of red food colouring in and some more white chocolate buds and microwave. If it goes clumpy add more white chocolate and melt it in until its runny. Dip the remaining 1/3 in that and set. Get some bamboo skewers from the supermarket and paint them whatever colour you like leaving 3 cm at the top for the strawberry. Poke the skewer through the center of the green but make sure to stop before the paint, as they contain chemicals you do not want to consume. Get a green cube from your local florist (that they do arrangements with) and poke them into that in equal distances apart. place that in your vase and decorate!

Reply:It can be difficult to know what to bring to a brunch. You can bring the typical, boring noodle casserole or gelatin fruit mold, like everyone else. Or, the next time you are asked to bring something to gathering, make something original with this creative strawberry bouquet. It is an easy to make crowd-pleaser and can also be used as a charming hostess gift.


Anyhoo:











Things You’ll Need:


Chocolate almond bark


Fresh strawberries


Vase


Ribbon


Wooden skewers


Wax paper





Step 1:


Melt a 16 ounce package of chocolate almond bark.





Step 2:


Wash two dozen fresh strawberries. They should be symmetrical and free of any deformities. The more red the strawberries are, the better your bouquet will look.





Step 3:


Insert the pointed end of a wooden skewer into the green leafy end of each strawberry. Push it in until it is halfway through. Set aside half of the strawberries.





Step 4:


Dip the remaining strawberries into the chocolate one at a time. Leave a small part of the strawberry uncovered, next to the leafy end. Lay them on a piece of waxed paper and refrigerate until the chocolate has hardened.





Step 5:


Place the skewers holding the chocolate covered strawberries into a clean vase.





Step 6:


Add the skewers with the uncoated strawberries. Spread them throughout the arrangement.





Step 7:


Tie a ribbon around the vase.
