@@karenbarcenas3954 thank you. I found Ghirardelli melting wafers and thought I would have it way easier with those but I found that the semi sweet morsels tasted way better even though it is thicker and harder to work with. I wound up with white chocolate and milk chocolate Ghirardelli wafer strawberries and the semi sweet morsel strawberries and everyone loved them. It took so long to make. I see why people pay others to make them.
Almond bark is actually one of the most recommended chocolates for dipping any type of treat! It’s smooth, tastes good, and melts down nicely/can reheat and reuse. It’s all I’ve ever used for my business and people have said that mine are the best that they’ve ever had. I guess everyone’s different, but I’ve never had complaints.
I temper with a scraper on a marble surface and it's so easy. No worrying about temperatures or melting and seeding. I just drop half the chocolate on the marble, scrap it back and forth for a few minutes and I can feel the minute it is in temper by the change in texture. I just started tempering last year. I've only done it a few dozen times but I have never had a fail. I use Callebaut
Just here to say that I followed your instructions and they turned out PERFECT!!! The thermometer gun really made a difference. Last time I think the chocolate was too hot and the strawberries were cold so they did not cover or pick up the chocolate well at all. Thanks for the vid ❤️😋
I am so glad you confirmed my thinking of storing the strawberries overnight. I made a batch, did not fridge overnight and took left overs to work the next day. Everyone loved them and wanted me to make them for their special someone for Valentines Day. I turned them down because of storage and freshness issues. Love your kitchen.
I use coconut oil and that takes these babies to a different level also I let them dry standing up, thank you so much for sharing how to temper chocolate ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
From my experience, coconut oil can be hit it or miss. Sometimes it helped with the melting and sometimes it made it hard...plus it tends to leave a taste on the berries. What has helped in the past for me is using a small drop of veggie oil.
@@plontkegurl9529 The oils just help the chocolate melt thinner and be smooth so that you can easily dip it. But honestly using a good high quality chocolate limits having to add anything. Even though it can be a little more expensive but its worth it.
For anyone wanting to colour the chocolate with gel food colouring, here's an alternative : Add a little bit of oil in your melted chocolate and then add your gel food color. This trick is shown in many videos from Rosie's dessert spot. In the linked video below, she explains it at 1'55 and also in the description box. Hope it's useful for someone :p ruclips.net/video/ZXoYlGXdgwc/видео.html
@@SugarGeekShow yes you're right ! A lot of bakers on RUclips do not specify if their chocolate is tempered or not, if it's even real chocolate or compound chocolate... It's misleading but I researched it and yes you're absolutely right ! The method used by the other baker is for compound chocolate or non tempered chocolate.
@@zaza7594 but if it's non-tempered isn't it soft and doesn't make for a nice dipped strawberry? That's why I'm here.. my dipped strawberries were always moist and the chocolate was soft.
@@sylvia5623 to be honest I don't know what a dipped strawberry should taste like ^^ we don't really have that where I'm from, I mean it's not that popular as far as I know. But after a bit of research I found many many videos of chocolate anything (strawberry, chocolate bar, name it) when the chocolate was NOT tempered. So my guess is part of the people don't care if it goes soft because they refrigerate it enough and part of the people use compound chocolate but they just call it chocolate which just confused me a lot. Now I know better ;)
@@zaza7594 oh, even if it isn't made like the professionals make it, it all tastes the same. All this effort is just about the presentation. I would recommend just melting some chocolate and dipping it to eat some. It's really good!
I just made ghost candy apples with Ghirardelli white vanilla-flavored melting wafers. I use the microwave. Your 15-second rule was great advice. They came out great.
This is all fancy fancy. I buy some Ghirardelli bars, break them up by their squares, pop it in the microwave until its melted, and dip my patted dry strawberries in them and they always come out perfect lol
Thank you for this. California does manage to grow some pretty awesome strawberries but unfortunately what everybody doesn't know is the majority of those grade AA strawberries go to Disneyland for their chocolate covered strawberries! Maybe now that Disneyland really isn't open and the strawberry season is about to be upon us we might just get some real gems! Perfect for dipping perfect for chocolate!
This is really the best tutorial for chocolate covered strawberries!!! Thank You!!! I was thinking about experimenting with chocolates to find the best one to use but you did all the work. Thank you!
I used the Trader Joe's giant 1lb slab Belgian chocolate bars ($5 at mine) to make hot cocoa bombs and they worked beautifully! The temperature range for tempering the semi-sweet and dark also seemed to be pretty forgiving. I have some left so I'll try it for dipping strawberries. :)
I bought some Belgien white, milk and dark chocolate but I couldn’t get my hands on a strawberry ! The joys of living on an Island . I did make your pink velvet cake, delicious! I used a white chocolate Italian meringue buttercream, really yummy ! I ended up making some last minute truffles and tempered my chocolate perfectly . Thank you for the microwave version of tempering . It all worked out in the end . My heart cake with cover that looked like a heart shaped box of chocolates was a hit!
This is the best well explained video of how to make chocolate covered strawberries the right way, and I’ve watched a lot of videos, her energy is literally the best, thank god for this video
Your strawberries came out GORGEOUS!! I was washing my produce, looked at the washed strawberries and thought "chocolate covered strawberries"🤔, looked it up on RUclips and your video is the first that popped up lol!! Thank you for sharing and I do have Lindy's Cherry Tango dark chocolate, I always have several varieties of Lindt's dark chocolate bars on hand🥰, I mean next to diamonds, chocolate are a girl's best friend lol!! I so cannot wait to make these!!🍫🍓🍓🍓❤️🥰
I’ve learned a lot with your vlogs makes me feel like I’m a pro chef though in reality, I’m not 😂✌️ but thanks to you coz you really helped me a lot & my kids enjoyed all the cakes & creativity that I made for them because of your awesome knowledge and ideas. God bless!
I never used a thermometer. This is new to me... Wow! I'll pass. Those who may be reading this: she mentioned to warm it up every 15 seconds...that's actually great advice and you won't ever burn your chocolate that way! 😉
Great video but one thing I am not sure if it was mentioned but once you temper the melted chocolate it needs to be used right away. You can't "set it aside". It will set pretty quickly in the bowl
Here's a tip! If you don't want to use all of that white color, just add a drop of purple to tone it because purple cancels yellow that's why they use purple shampoo on hair to make it less yellow in color!
Ahhhh I'm on my friends computer but like I needed this so bad Mother's Day is coming and this is perfect along with all the festivies I have planned for her thank you miss!
New sub😁 I just adore your bubbly personality & your set up is so stinking cute. I look forward to making the 🍓 with my kids this weekend 💕. With your tips I feel confident 😍.
We don't see Guittard chocolate much here in the UK. Callebaut very popular and not that expensive either. Valrhona and various bars. Just to say we tend not to use pyrex/glass bowls to melt chocolate - always plastic 🥰
I washed the strawberries and dried them. They sat out on paper towels all day and are now looking too dry. I also had many that weren't ripe. What do you recommend? BTW, I've watched about 3 videos about this so far and yours had the most information. Thank you.
Watching this full of science took all the fun and enthusiasm out of me that I had to do these smh . I did pick up some great pointers but I mean dang you were like the substitute in the summer on a Friday.. all work no play
Loved this detailed video the best out of all the others I’ve watched! So I have a question, After I wash them how long can they be kept in the fridge for chocolate covered strawberries? I’m buying strawberries in bulk to sell for this Valentine’s Day but I’m picking them up the Thursday before which is 3 days will they still be good for Sunday?
Thank you for your videos, they’re so instructive and comprehensive. I loved your tempering chocolate video and this strawberry video. Would love to see you make some candy honeycomb and dipped in chocolate.
I wash the strawberries the evening, where do I leave the strawberries to dry? Back in the refrigerator? On the counter? So I may start dipping, first thing, in the morning.
confused about this too. what did you end up doing? im letting them air dry for an hour rn and then i think i’ll put them in the fridge overnight and dip tmm
@@zashiworld i rises them, dried by hand, allowed to sit, on the counter for a good hour. Dipped in the chocolate. Placed on parchment paper to dry. I noticed the leaking from the strawberries.
Hello 👋 the chocolate 🍫 you mentioned not to use....is the exact chocolates I use for my chocolate covered strawberries and they work great! Although I haven't tried melting the Hershey bar 🤐! If you don't mind me asking can you tell me your experience with the chocolates you said not to use? Thank you in advance 🤗
So once you wash them the night before, you said stick them in the fridge. Next day take them out the fridge and let them sit for a bit and then dip? Because the strawberries will be cold if you don’t let them sit correct?
Candy melts usually have shortening or vegetable oil in them, so that’s good to use for thinning and melting if you’re using imitation chocolate. But with real chocolate, you’ll want to add cocoa butter instead.
I was just so envious of the look on your face when you bit into a strawberry I wanted to reach through the screen and grab a handful or two handfuls they look so good thank you for making it look so easy and I love the science behind everything you do thank you for sharing and as always keep on caking or should I say strawberry LOL
Love your new kitchen! Use it in good health! Question: I heard one could use gel color in white chocolate if the gel was warmed up and you use just a little bit. Any opinion on that? I'm trying not to spend any more money because this project is a one time thing.Thank you! Love your channel!
My mom would be like temperature ur chocolate que? Her measurements with me growing up where a pinch of this a pinch of that lol I learn something new everyday.
I found tried and true Herseys chocolate milk chocolate bars super shine can easily melt in microwave and for lettering is really smooth and easy to work with andddddd cheap haa even the dollar store has them super cheap🤩😝🥰
Question Liz, It's best to keep them uncovered in the fridge.... if they're for a customer, and they're uncovered in the fridge. When they come to pick it up and i place them in their box to go and cover it, will it be fine by the time they reach their destination?
Infrared thermometers on your link range from $69 to $789 not $15 like you mentioned. All the other information was great and very useful, thanks so much!
Pesticides are not used to make straeberies shiny. It's purpose is killig any grass and weeds, bugs, mold etc... So there is just strawberries left on the field. It's definitly not heathy, cuz theese are chemicals, but it's not used to make strawberries shiny. Regular oil or wax has been used to do this shiny result

Candy melts usually have shortening or vegetable oil in them, so that’s good to use for thinning and melting if you’re using imitation chocolate. But with real chocolate, you’ll want to add cocoa butter instead.

Hello! Quick questions, how much of the callebaut chocolate do you typically use for a box of strawberries?
i used callebaut and it took sooo long to dry!
Such a great informative video. Like a PBS special. Also it’s oddly soothing and satisfying. I love this.
With almond bark all you have to do is warm it for 30 secs the stir it then put it back in for 30 secs and it’s perfect
You can use oil based food coloring to color chocolate or flo-coat if you are using gel based food coloring

Thank you so much!! My GF is going to love these!!!!
Hi I've been researching how to temper Ghirardelli white chocolate chips, I haven't found much. I was wondering if you had any advice or information to share. Thank you for all of your videos, very helpful!
Who's watching this on father's day morning trying to learn how to do this to make some for significant other 💘
