How to make tuxedo strawberries
Making tuxedo strawberries is not only fun, but easier then one might think. This is a great way to add class and a little style to any buffet table. I personally have used this for numerous weddings, my child’s school dances, birthdays, and even just as a way to dress up our table at our family BBQ. With these simple steps your treat will be the talk of the party! See how to make chocolate tuxedo strawberries below!
You will need.
- 1 lb ripe strawberries
- 6 oz white chocolate bits
- 8 oz chocolate chips
- 2 tsp flavorless oil or shortening
- wax paper
- toothpicks
- paper towels things could get a little messy!
First thing first, wash your strawberries and gently pat them dry. I usually line them up on a paper towel to dry. Once dry I lay down my wax paper, and now your ready to get dipping!
Next, you will want to apply the white chocolate. First,heat your mixture in the microwave or by oven top. Be sure you have all the lumps out of your mixture before you start dipping. Make sure you have a deep bowl it makes it much easier to dip the strawberry straight down to get the nice smooth even coat of white chocolate! Make sure you always let the extra chocolate drip off you don’t want any extra lumps! Once you have covered all of your strawberries, let them sit for about 10-15 min until they are fully dry.
Then, melt your chocolate the same as the white chocolate. Now instead of completely dipping the strawberry, dip one side, then rotate to the other side, making sure you leave a small V shape in the middle. Remember to let the excess drip off, this is very important this is the final product that your guest will be seeing. Once dry and you have completed all your strawberries. You can begin applying the necktie and buttons. Using your toothpicks dip them into the chocolate and right above the V of the tuxedo make two dots for the buttons, you may have to re dip a couple of times to get the right amount then add your bow tie!
Ta-Da! You have now completed a wonderful and unique dessert that people will be talking about. And trust me from now on you will be getting requests from friends and family to bring your famous tuxedo strawberries to almost every event!
I hope you were able to learn how to make chocolate tuxedo strawberries! Have a great day!
