Why Use an Ice Cube Tray?

Chocolate-covered strawberries are a timeless treat that delights taste buds worldwide. Typically, the process of coating strawberries in chocolate can turn somewhat chaotic. However, utilizing an ice cube tray can simplify this process, providing a cleaner and quicker method to enjoy these delicious snacks. Within just five minutes of prep, you can indulge in perfectly coated strawberries without the mess.

 

The Melting Process

To achieve the perfect chocolate coating, it is essential to melt chocolate chips to a smooth consistency. After melting, stir the chocolate to avoid clumping. A little added coconut oil not only enhances the chocolate’s glossy finish, but also influences how it sets. Once your strawberries are washed and dried, pour the melted mixture into the ice cube tray, filling each section two-thirds of the way. Then, nestle a strawberry into each space before placing the tray in the refrigerator for about one hour.

Storing and Enhancing Your Treats

Once your chocolate-covered strawberries have set, removing them from the tray is a breeze—simply twist and turn the tray gently. For storage, keep them at room temperature and cover loosely with plastic wrap to maintain freshness. To elevate your chocolate-covered strawberry experience, consider tempering the chocolate, which provides a shinier finish and longer-lasting results. Experimenting with a mix of chocolates can create an enticing visual feast, ensuring your next gathering boasts the ultimate chocolate-dipped delight.
