Ingredients

  • 1 pound strawberries
  • 2 cups almond bark or candy melts or white chocolate
  • 3 tablespoons blue sprinkles or colored sugar

Instructions

  • Melt your almond bark or candy melts according to package instructions.  If you're using white chocolate, add ½ tsp vegetable oil or shortening to every ½ cup diced chocolate or chips to make dipping easier.
  • Make sure your berries are dry, hold them by the greens and give them a dunk, leaving some red visible at the top.
  • Dip in blue sprinkles or colored sugar, making sure you leave a band of white chocolate. Place on parchment and chill to harden.

Notes

  • These berries are great to make ahead. Prepare them up to 24 hours in advance and store in a single layer in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • Can't find blue sanding sugar? Get white and simply use a toothpick to add a very small amount of liquid or gel food color to your sugar in a zip top bag. Seal it up and shake/smush until you reach the color you're looking for.
