Chocolate Covered Football Strawberries: Two Lessons Learned

January 31, 2023 by Leandrea Voskanian


We were invited to a Superbowl party.  “Bring an appetizer” we were told.  But making cute appetizers is so not my thing.  A quick search using the words “super bowl food” on Pinterest yielded Chocolate Covered Football Strawberries.  I quickly fell in love with that idea.  I keep almond bark on hand (see Patriotic Strawberries, Candy Cane Heart Lollipops, and Marshmallow Lollipops and you will see why).  A quick trip to Kroger and $5 worth of strawberries later and I was ready to get started.

links disclosureLessons Learned when making Chocolate Covered Football Strawberries:

1) It was much easier to use a double boiler method to coat the strawberries in chocolate than it was to melt the chocolate in the microwave.  Having the chocolate be consistently warm was very nice.  To create a double boiler all you need is to boil water in a large pan and to put a saucepan in the boiling water.  Put the almond bark/chocolate into the saucepan and stir until it melts.  Easy peasy!  Remember to stir occasionally while you are covering your strawberries.

2) The second lesson I learned when making chocolate covered football strawberries was to use Wilton Cake Decorating tips.  I used a tip coupler with a fine point tip (in a Ziplock bag) and my second batch of strawberries turned out a lot better than the first!  The skinnier lines really do make a big difference.  You can see Round 1 versus Round 2 in the photos below.

 

These are ready for the big game.  I do feel a little guilty that we aren’t bringing an appetizer, but maybe it’s better that way.  My kitchen skills aren’t all that great!
