Description
Delicious Galaxy Chocolate-Covered Strawberries, perfect for any occasion with a stunning galaxy effect.
Ingredients
Scale
- 20 fresh strawberries (washed & dried completely)
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate or candy melts
- Gel food coloring: navy blue, teal, violet, black
- ½ cup dark chocolate (for drizzling)
- ½ cup purple or blue candy melts (for extra swirl drizzle)
- Edible glitter (pearl dust, luster dust, or galaxy sparkle blend)
- Small star-shaped edible sprinkles & silver dragées
Instructions
- Wash strawberries and dry thoroughly (moisture prevents chocolate from sticking).
- Line a tray with parchment paper.
- Melt white chocolate (or candy melts) in a heatproof bowl over a double boiler or in the microwave in 20-second intervals until smooth.
- Divide melted chocolate into 3–4 bowls. Tint each with gel food coloring (navy, teal, violet, black).
- In a clean bowl, swirl small spoonfuls of each color together (don’t overmix—just swirl lightly).
- Hold strawberries by the stem and dip into the swirled chocolate, letting the colors blend for a galaxy effect.
- Place on the parchment-lined tray.
- Melt dark chocolate or purple candy melts, drizzle thin lines across strawberries.
- Sprinkle with edible glitter, mini pearls, and star sprinkles while still wet.
- Let strawberries set at room temperature or refrigerate for 10 minutes until firm.
Notes
- Ensure strawberries are completely dry for best results.
- Use high-quality chocolate for a smoother finish.
- Experiment with different color combinations for unique galaxy effects.
