Ingredients:

  • 1 lb (450g) Fresh Strawberries
  • 1 cup (170g) Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • 1/3 cup (60g) White Chocolate Wafers
  • 1 tsp (5ml) Refined Coconut Oil

Instructions:

  1. Dry the fruit. Pat each of the 450g of strawberries with a paper towel until bone dry to the touch. Note: Any moisture will seize the chocolate.
  2. Prepare the boiler. Fill a small pot with 2cm of water and bring to a bare simmer.
  3. Melt the base. Place 170g semi sweet chips and 5ml coconut oil in a glass bowl over the pot.
  4. Stir gently. Use a spatula to stir until 80% of the chips have melted, then remove from heat.
  5. Finish melting. Continue stirring off the heat until the mixture is glossy and smooth.
  6. Dip the berries. Hold a strawberry by the stem and submerge it into the chocolate, swirling once.
  7. Drain excess. Lift the berry and shake gently until the heavy dripping stops.
  8. Set on parchment. Place the berry down and slide it 1cm forward to prevent a large puddle.
  9. Melt the accent. Melt 60g white chocolate wafers in 15 second bursts in the microwave.
  10. Drizzle and chill. Use a spoon to flick white chocolate over the berries until a striped pattern forms.
