Strawberries with Bowtie

To prepare these delicious chocolate-covered strawberries, we start by ensuring we have the freshest and most flavorful strawberries. Carefully wash them under a stream of cold water, then place them on a paper towel, allowing them to dry completely. It is important for the fruits to be well dried to allow the chocolate to adhere effectively.

While the strawberries are drying, we can take care of the chocolate. In a heatproof bowl, melt the white chocolate in a double boiler, stirring constantly to avoid lumps. Once the white chocolate is completely melted and has a fluid consistency, take each strawberry and dip it into the white chocolate, ensuring it is evenly coated. Then, place the strawberries on a tray lined with parchment paper and put them in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes, until the white chocolate has set well, forming a delicious "coat".

After the white chocolate has set, it’s time to take care of the dark chocolate. Melt the dark chocolate in another bowl, using the same double boiler method. When the dark chocolate is completely melted, take the strawberries out of the refrigerator and carefully dip each strawberry on the sides into the dark chocolate, creating an elegant appearance, resembling a tuxedo. Let the excess chocolate drip off and place the strawberries back on the tray.

Once you have finished coating all the strawberries, put them back in the refrigerator to allow the dark chocolate to set. In the meantime, you can prepare a little decoration from dark chocolate to add a special detail. Using a piping bag or a decorating tube, create a small bow tie on each strawberry, giving them a playful and elegant look.

When all the strawberries are ready, you can serve them on a beautiful platter, admiring them for their attractive appearance. These chocolate-covered strawberries are not only a treat for the eyes but also an explosion of flavors and textures. Whether you enjoy them with friends at a party or give them as a special gift, they are definitely an excellent choice. Enjoy!
