Ingredients
- 12 strawberries
- 2 tablespoons dark chocolate, melted
- Yellow, pink, white, orange and blue chocolate candy melts
- Toothpicks
Helpful Tip
All use of appliances should be done by an adult.
Directions
1. Wash and dry strawberries thoroughly with a paper towel. Choose strawberries that are around the same size for consistency.
2. Melt chocolate candy melts in the microwave at 25-second intervals until melted and smooth. Use yellow for Pooh, pink for Piglet, orange for Tigger and blue for Eeyore. For Piglet, add some white candy melts as well to lighten up the pink.
3. Dip the strawberries into each colour and coat a little over half way. Place each one in a small baking cup.
4. Draw on the ears for each character with toothpicks.
5. Wait for the first layer to dry (approximately 5 minutes) and draw on the faces with melted chocolate. For Tigger, use the yellow chocolate to draw on details, and pink for his nose. For Eeyore, use the white chocolate to create his snout and pink for his ears.
6. Place in refrigerator for about 10 minutes for the chocolate to set. Enjoy!
