Oh goodness! Those strawberries look amazing! Thanks for sharing!
These are so pretty! They are very expensive to buy already made and don’t look too difficult.
Thank you for sharing this. Chocolate Covered Strawberries are my all-time favorite.
I’ve always been intimidated to make my own chocolate covered strawberries, but your step-by-step directions make it seem easy. I love the different colored chocolate and sprinkles you used. It is strawberry season now here in Florida, and this would be a fun activity to do with my daughters. 🙂
It’s strawberry season here and Father’s Day is next weekend so I’ll be making these. I love chocolate covered berries but hate paying the price for them in stores. This sounds easy to do.
These look so yummy! I need to try to make these!!
WOW!! These look absolutely delicious! We will definitely have to try this recipe! Thanks for sharing!
You are so welcome!
