Have you found a resolution for finding nice, big, pretty strawberries I would like to know also I tried to wash them I think I did something wrong becuz they ended up mushy so I couldn't use them
I had almost 400 strawberries to do yesterday for mother’s day and my back and feet were hurting so bad 😭 But it was so worth ! If anyone is thinking about starting this business I totally recommend it just be dedicated to all the hours decorating! I made almost $400 yesterday 🥳 I’m only 15 ☺️
If you guys are doing this, a good place to start is half a dozen for $20 plain, with some drizzle. You need to take into consideration your time, packaging, strawberry price it fluctuates so so much, chocolate price, especially if you’re using the good stuff! Don’t under sell! Practice with time and get your stuff looking as professional as possible! People like seeing pretty things! If you nail it the first time with a customer they will come back and recommend you! Good luck, hope this helps!
Exactly. I always research the highest price of the strawberries in the store that i but them when they are not on sale. I then go off that price and start there. So if i get to get them on sale cool but if not then im still making a good profit based on the numbers that i feel they are worth. If that makes sense.
Just a tip for those interested in selling these. Make sure that your fee is giving you a good profit. It takes ALOT of time and money to buy all the supplies and treats. For wine and berry boxes, I charge at least $40 and go up depending on if they want additions like pretzels, oreos, etc. Its definitely a GREAT side hussel if you know how to charge properly.
Please tell me you have a channel with this type of info on it. I want to do this so bad because I love sugar crafting a just dont know how to price them.
Omg girl $11 dollars for strawberries in downtown L.A you could go to the wholesale product market and get a box of more than 100 big red beautiful strawberries starting around $12ish .. if you live in L.A just a tip :)
Girllll donde?? I live so close to LA and I’ve been wanting to start my own little business . And I’ve been trying to get strawberries pero they are pretty expensive
Hey guys if you google it is called the L A Wholesale Produce Market . There are different vendors but they have good prices . They open super early mostly at 4am
No no girl. You must sell for higher. They are alot of time to make. I sell 6 for 25 & 12 for 45. Thats for plain covered ir maybe some drizzle. The more decoration the more the coat. You did good, raise your prices a bit!
Thank you for the feedback . I honestly never new people would pay more for the strawberrys until I posted this video I'm glad I found wonderful people to give me feedback I have increased my prices now 👌🙏😊
Im going to start selling them soon and was doing my research on how to price them better. I didn’t think I should go that high due to me being a beginner and starting out. How did you determine that price for your strawberries?
I’m a med student in SoCal. A bunch of the girls here already sell chocolate covered strawberries, but since I really need the extra money for school + rent on the side, I am thinking about making chocolate covered strawberry bouquets with cake pops. I have no idea how to start or what to price them, I don’t even know what they’ll cost me lol. I guess we all have to start somewhere. Great video!!
@@luzvega you’re in Arizona right? It all depends on the state and area you live in. Yea they will definitely go up, but I’m not sure how much. They’re $8 a pack here in the north side of vegas but on the west side they’re about $4
Yes I'm in Arizona. I think we usually have cheaper produce. I just did an event with 60 strawberrys lucky me I only waisted like $12 in strawberrys lol
This doesn’t normally happen, the only reason stores were out because a lot of people buy strawberries for Valentine’s Day. I normally get mine 4-5 days b4
Wow this is amazing! I actually sold chocolate strawberries for the first time this Valentine’s Day too and the exact same thing happened to me!! I couldn’t believe it, it was like you were telling my story lol. I could not find any strawberries and I went the day before 😬 but luckily Walmart had some! Your story was inspiring! This gives me hope 💖
Girl raise the prices ! I sell my chocolate strawberries $15 a dozen and they’re $12 each if they buy 2 or more. My fresas locas are $18 a dozen and $15 each if they buy 2 or more
So let’s say you have one order for a dozen strawberries. How do you charge someone because you have to buy a whole pack of strawberries but only using 12 of them? Do you know what I mean?
@@clarissadavila7136 build your clientele, you have to sell at what they’re worth. If people don’t want to buy then I understand but then you’re not making profit
I just started in this business recently. Thank you very much for sharing details about the prices, investment, etc. I was searching for a video on prices for dipped strawberries and it took me a long time to find one that gives details like you did in this video. Your prices are super low! Which state do you live in? Up here in the Northeast / DMV area, we pay $2 or $3 + for each strawberry in a package (Ex. Pack of 6 dipped strawberries in Wegmans is $18.99). I wish you the best.
Hey lol I go to Costco every Saturday so I’m prepared for a order if I get one over the week or weekend the best thing you can do is buy 3 pound containers of candy melts on Amazon if I don’t get a order that week or weekend I make some for my family and post Instagram pictures:))
absolutely adorable - they all came out beautiful - you def could've sold for more! Appreciate you sharing your experience! I wish you the best - please keep doing it!!!
I enjoyed watching ur video but I will just want to let u know that u ur prices will really low.. Ur PRESENTATION was AMAZING & ur work is worth more!! VALENTINE IS AROUND THE CORNER & I HOPE U UP UR PRICE... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK MAMA GOD BLESS🙏🏾💜
How much were your strawberries from Walmart? I recently started selling chocolate covered strawberries and also recently raised my prices. Now I charge $24/dozen for the ones with a chocolate drizzle on top and $36/dozen for toppings. I know there are people who charge even more than me 😬 it's stressful making them because you can't buy the strawberries or make them in advance in order to have the most fresh product! I make mine the night before or even the day they're due. Sometimes I end up buying three boxes of strawberries just for one dozen because there are lots of "duds" (too small, squished, etc) so I have to consider all my costs. Great video! You could easily charge double with your pretty packaging and toppings!
At walmart i bought them for 2.50 i believe ! With at the time i was like hell ya cause castco was like $10 a box 🤦♀️and I agree I could have sold these for alot more It was my first time making them but I have definitely changed my prices now 👍
How were you able to store them before they picked/delivered them? I'm having trouble with storing strawberries so they don't sweat or build condensation before they are picked up by the customer.
I made them the night before and placed them in a big foam ice box .. and my strawberries did not sweat at all i advised also to eat within 24 hours for best results 👍
How do you push out your product? Do you make them and post it for ppl to buy orrr do you have pictures and people order in advance? Pls lmk thank you you did a great job
This was my first time making them for sale. And I only sold to my coworkers I work in the medical field so I work with alot of people and they made orders 2 weeks prior to valentine's day . I would recommend posting pictures on social media
When I started selling chocolate covered strawberries, I sold them for $10 but that was over 10 yrs ago. Now I sell them for $20 and over, depending if they want color, toppings and decor.
You done a great job. Yes, your prices were a little low, but you probably got a lot of repeated orders due to your pricing. Word of mouth is the best advertising, so you did well. Try to use more boxes and less bags. The bags will make your candy sweat, and the boxes will let them breathe. Your decorated bags were awesome, but you will catch hell in a hot car, or sunny day. Also, keep a positive attitude and keep moving. Continue to encourage yourself, and watch your business grow. When I started out djing, my prices was much lower than others, but my music and song selections were great. I got a lot of business from those attending parties , and I grew to higher heights whereas I am requested to play at festivals, events, and I have played at three or four sporting events. So, always encourage yourself. Do note others steal your joy. God bless you, and good luck with your business.
I would love to know how to grow in that business because I started doing the same thing in February and made $600 in 3 days. My Business is at a standstill I’m not sure how to generate orders other than just putting it on social media.
Oouuu girl i been there. I was freaking out when i couldn't find any the day before. Sis in my opinion you are under charging. I start my prices at $25 for a dozen of plain chocolate then i start adding $5 per decoration. Like for example you want peanuts thats an extra $5, you want mixed half peanuts and half coconut that $35. Then i add $5 for local delivery. If you want more tips let me know i will give you my email. I make a huge profit during holidays.
@@Monkey1113 I tale into the account what is the highest prices for flowers when they are not on sale and for the bottles of alcohol. Like for example a dozen plain strawberries with a bottle of Moscato and 6 Roses that starts around $80
Such a good idea. I like decorating strawberry chocolates just for fun but will definitely be trying to sell some. Definitely a good way on making money especially with all this Coronavirus making it hard for people work. I’m subscribing. I loved your personality 💞
Hopefully you see this! But how do you ship your strawberries? I have a few orders from people out of state. Do you any ways to ship to keep them fresh?
You should store them in the freezer until they are ready to ship. When you ship them make sure you seal them tight and pop them in a styrofoam container then get some bags of dry ice as well! If you Google how to ship frozen foods, pictures of the packaging will pop up.
Whew in the Bay Area we selling 4 strawberries for $15! You can definitely make more money than a hundred and something dollars! Thanks for the ideas though!
Your prices are so low girl! I sell some myself and for your decorations and the effort you put in them they are definitely under priced. Don’t be afraid to up your prices next time if you decide to make some! ☺️ specially on holidays!!
I have noticed people charge about 4 dollars each strawberry with toppings . My most recent video i sold for $50 including the chocolate heart I think I could of got about $70 for it if I am being honest
@@adriloka8009 I charge 1.50 for plain dipped strawberries. 1.75 with chocolate drizzle, 2.00 with toppings and 3 with toppings and infused. Tbh it’s still a little low based on other vendors prices but I try to be as reasonable as possible. Check out my IG @treatsbyclaryy If you have questions DM me!
Love the vid! What did you use for your chocolate, and how did you melt them? They look smooth and great!! I’ve used Wilton Candy Melts in the past but I hate them! Lol 😝
Girl thank you so much for this video! This is something i really want to do but wasn't sure how much i would need to start off! You just gained a subbie :)💕
Hello sweetie. Good work. I want you to know your worth and your worth for the work you put in on those strawberies was wonderful. From decoration to storage. 1dz. $36-$48 and up That's $3-$4 each and more for design Strawberry. You are worth it. Call around to see what the going rate will be. Keep up the good work.
Girl I made a page for it & I have people telling me I’m copying them🙄 I was just bored lol since I’m on furlough due to Coronavirus & wanted something to do
Girl so what . People are haters they never want to see people doing anything good cause they hating. 🤦♀️ keep going with your page dont let anyone make you feel ashamed or that your doing something wrong 👏
Dont you need a license to sell refrigerated food? I want to start a small business that sells cake pops and dipped fruit, i know dry baked products are protected under the cottage food law. However i am confused about the strawberries, does anyone know, i live in michigan?
Most of my orders came from the office I was working at during the time of the video. As well as friends who ordered I typically make a post on Instagram when I'm making sales .. social media is great to get coustomers !! Thank you for watching 🥰
Hey I have a question how much would you recommend for me to sell a dozen? It’s hard to have certain prices when strawberry prices change often or you have to go to different stores
Last time i sold them $10 a dozen but honestly thats nothing for the hard work and like u said prices change on strawberries I am making some for fathers day and I sold each chocolate coverd strawberry for $2 so if they wanted a dozen it would be $24 ..
This is valuable information and I really appreciate it! You should do restaurant idea pricing/ catering I would love to start small doing both so your video was right on time Thank you so much
Sometimes it seems like my darker chocolate takes more than an hour in the fridge to harden. Should I try the freezer for 5 minutes first or Any other suggestions?
I have never workd with black chocolate. But have you tried refrigerating the strawberries then covering them with chocolate so the strawberries are nice and cool prior to dipping
luz veg Oh I meant like milk chocolate vs white chocolate! And no I’ve never tried that. I always read the berries should be at room temperature, but I will definitely try them chilled! Thanks!
Thank you for sharing . I want to start my business and now I have an idea . How much money I can charge . Plus now this year it is so expensive . Thank you for your time
Thank you all for watching! I hope you guys enjoy this video ! If you would like to see how the strawberries were made check out my channel for the recipe 🍓
I leave them out i use an ice cooler with ice packs i live in az very hot so they need to be keeped in a cool place. I have noticed they get sweaty if placed in the refrigerator
@360Gipsy can I ask, around how much do you sell 10 strawberries for? I started selling 8 strawberries in a cup (drinkable plastic cup) for $10 bucks but idk if that's to low
It would depend on your chocolate. I would recommend keeping it chilld the longer the better. I use styrofoam for my strawberrys maybe it works for them too 🤔
Hey my friend and are want to start a chocolate strawberry business . We are seniors in high school . We are worrying about delivery cause its times we can get rides while other times we cant .
I would encourage your customers to pick up the strawberry! Or maybe offer a parent a few $$ to help with deliverys and charge your customers a little extra to deliver
I charge the amount of miles it is from where you’ll be delivering to by whatever your gas prices are at the time. You could easily look up the prices of the gas station you go to.
I have not had this experience but its possible that the strawberry isn't any longer fresh. Once you cover the strawberry with chocolate it creates moisture so u want to eat them within a few hours of buying/making

That's $3-$4 each and more for design Strawberry. You are worth it.
Call around to see what the going rate will be. Keep up the good work.

You did an amazing job! Your jobs were very professional and you had impressive presentation.

My question is did you use real chocolate or candy melts? Which brands?
I use candy melts. Brand is chocomaker u can buy it at Walmart or Amazon amzn.to/2LicxAs
Dont you need a license to sell refrigerated food? I want to start a small business that sells cake pops and dipped fruit, i know dry baked products are protected under the cottage food law. However i am confused about the strawberries, does anyone know, i live in michigan?
You snapped! Great job! Absolutely double your prices
Thank you ! I have raised my prices now 🥰
How do you get so many orders? Like do you have a website or its word of mouth? Good Job Chicka❤
Most of my orders came from the office I was working at during the time of the video. As well as friends who ordered I typically make a post on Instagram when I'm making sales .. social media is great to get coustomers !! Thank you for watching 🥰
You explain everything so well! Good job & I hope your little business is going well
Thank you 😊💓
Thinking of doing this Valentine’s Day. Where did you get the Tin cans
I buy mine at dolor tree.
Hey I have a question how much would you recommend for me to sell a dozen? It’s hard to have certain prices when strawberry prices change often or you have to go to different stores
Last time i sold them $10 a dozen but honestly thats nothing for the hard work and like u said prices change on strawberries I am making some for fathers day and I sold each chocolate coverd strawberry for $2 so if they wanted a dozen it would be $24 ..
luz vega yea you’re right it’s tiring to be doing everything by yourself! They take time and effort so the price should be atleast $2 a berry
Hi, where did you purchase the heart tins from?
The dollar tree has them around valentine's day.
This is valuable information and I really appreciate it!
You should do restaurant idea pricing/ catering
I would love to start small doing both so your video was right on time
Thank you so much
Thanks! This was very informative. This seems like a fun side hustle.
Your my inspiration‼️🖤I have a question how did you get a lot of orders? Like how you made your business be known❓
Instagram and at my job I ask my coworkers.
Sometimes it seems like my darker chocolate takes more than an hour in the fridge to harden. Should I try the freezer for 5 minutes first or Any other suggestions?
I have never workd with black chocolate. But have you tried refrigerating the strawberries then covering them with chocolate so the strawberries are nice and cool prior to dipping
luz veg Oh I meant like milk chocolate vs white chocolate! And no I’ve never tried that. I always read the berries should be at room temperature, but I will definitely try them chilled! Thanks!
hi everyone! where do you recommend to buy chocolate and which one? I'm not sure what to get plz help
What size was the box with the wine?
Thank you for sharing . I want to start my business and now I have an idea . How much money I can charge . Plus now this year it is so expensive . Thank you for your time
Definitely charge more then I did 😊 this video is 2 years old I have learned and I have changed my prices
You did a good job your strawberries came out pretty
Strawberries looked so good 🍓😍😋
Honestly they were very tasty ! I got alot of complements from my client's ❤
Ok how or where do you store them after making them ? I made some and the strawberries sweat 😓 I’m a newbie help 🥺

Hi, where did you get the roses from that were in the wine box?
I bought them at my local frys but Walmart carrys flowers also
Thank you all for watching! I hope you guys enjoy this video ! If you would like to see how the strawberries were made check out my channel for the recipe 🍓
Love this video. Going to try and start a little business of my own thank you for this💕
Hi where did you get the big box the one with the wine and roses?
Its a cake box you can ask for them from the bakerys or buy some online i honestly dont remember the length of the box.
Question for you being you are putting wine in a box do you have to have a license to sell them with the wine in the box
I have a strawberry business and when they don’t have them I go and get them where ever they have them
They looked bomb!!!!!!
Girl they were ! Il make some soon so you can taste emm 🍓💕
If you make them the night before do you put them in the fridge or leave them out?
I leave them out i use an ice cooler with ice packs i live in az very hot so they need to be keeped in a cool place. I have noticed they get sweaty if placed in the refrigerator
You almost gave them for free 😳 I do berries as a side business and your prices were way, WAY low...You know now for the future
I made some for fathers day and raised my prices i didnt gave as many orders . People dont want to pay for what there actually worth
@360Gipsy can I ask, around how much do you sell 10 strawberries for? I started selling 8 strawberries in a cup (drinkable plastic cup) for $10 bucks but idk if that's to low
@@godisgood9340 that’s way too low. I do 6 for $12 and 12 for $24 and 24 for $46
My question is about delivery....does it melt fast? How do you deliver to multiple locations without any issues?
It would depend on your chocolate. I would recommend keeping it chilld the longer the better. I use styrofoam for my strawberrys maybe it works for them too 🤔
vega thathank you
Definitely did not charge enough. But they were beautiful.
Where to find the white boxes for the wine
Hey my friend and are want to start a chocolate strawberry business . We are seniors in high school . We are worrying about delivery cause its times we can get rides while other times we cant .
I would encourage your customers to pick up the strawberry! Or maybe offer a parent a few $$ to help with deliverys and charge your customers a little extra to deliver
I charge the amount of miles it is from where you’ll be delivering to by whatever your gas prices are at the time. You could easily look up the prices of the gas station you go to.
Very pretty Chocolate strawberries, but you didn't charge enough for your work.
I make chocolate covered strawberries I’m only 12 my parents help me 😀😀😘
Thats awesome! Strawberries are fun to make😊
Great video! Explained everything
Would you say someone can make this into a full-time (home) business?
Yes ! I really do . I have got to much feedback from people who do this for a living and it surprises me how I never you of it before
How many roses came with the wine box and How much did you sell it for?
12 And $65
Girl omgg ! Literally thank u so much for this video !!
Your welcome 🥰
Some bake shops take pre-orders
Ouhh you should charge a bit more! Your work is amazing + all the good supplies that you use…you are worth more ✨
Do you refrigerate the strawberries for the chocolate to get hard?
I refrigerate the strawberries before chocolate but not after . The strawberries will get sweaty if you refrigerate them
Where did you get the heart containers?
Dollor tree 🌳
The strawberries look so delicious
more entrepreneur ideas👍
Hey gorgeous what are your prices now ?
did you deliver each box personally?? how long did that take?
All orders came from my coworkers so I just took them with me to work . And I had a few ppl picked up from my home I don't deliver
Your prices were so low! But good work
Im so scared but I want to start, but idk how to start
Just do it ! Amazon is your best friend they have eveything for good ideas
luz vega thank you! I was doing some googling on where to buy the boxes and I saw the website brpshopbox Do you know if it’s legit?
I have never heard of it 😕. Your local Walmart might have boxes too or if your near a " dulceria" witch means candy store they have them there too
I love it I'm going start doing this
hey did you freeze them?
The strawberrys?
@@luzvega no dear ,the chocolate.. because my chocolate doesn't really dry.. its wet after putting in the fridge also
I would recommend a different brand of chocolate the one I use drys almost immediately could or room temperature strawberry
Where do you find those hugh strawberries
Castco or Walmart is where I usually find the strawberrys
@@luzvega thank you
Charge $2 per dipped strawberry!!!!!
How do you get your customers?
How do you guys promote? How are you able to make lots of sells? I want to start my little business but I’m scared I won’t have sells
I post on my Instagram and I make posters for my work so people can place orders. Girl just do it even if you start of small .
Why do some chocolate covered strawberries leak juice when u bite them?
I have not had this experience but its possible that the strawberry isn't any longer fresh. Once you cover the strawberry with chocolate it creates moisture so u want to eat them within a few hours of buying/making
