Have you ever made chocolate covered strawberries? They're really affordable to make and everyone loves them. The site I work with, How2Heroes, actually has a video that walks you through how to make them. Check it out: http://how2heroes.com/videos/dessert-and-baked-goods/chocolate-dipped-strawberries
Aren't they adorable for Valentine's Day? :D

Nice! I hope you guys have an awesome Valentine's Day :D
Do you know a good Fondue technique? I just had my first at-home fondue experience last week and the bottom kept getting charred. I think fondue is also a great Valentine's Day idea. Here's a Fondue technique that only requires chocolate and cream (I wish I knew of this before I made fondue!): http://how2heroes.com/videos/dessert-and-baked-goods/chocolate-fondue

Thanks so much for that video on the strawberries. I was totally wanting to make these for our Valentine's lunch with our 3 little boys, but wasn't sure if I dared. Now I'm so excited!!

Strawberries are on sale at Sunflower market in Murray for 1.25. Just make sure you dry them after you wash them. I made some today. So yummy!

I got some there this week to try chocolate dipped strawberries, thanks for this link on how to do it! I have to say I love Sunflower Market! They have such good deals on produce. Also pinapples are on sae for $1.25. I thought it would be good dipped in chocolate too!

That was the reason I went...for the pineapples. But, they were tiny...I mean I've never seen a pineapple so small. Probably still a good deal, but I was a little disappointed.

I know Valentines day is over, but try red seedless grapes dipped in chocolate. Dip them all the way- your hands will be all chocolatey- but they kinda "pop" in your mouth. Super tasty!

I guess i'm lazy when it comes to grapes. I just put them in a bowl, pour on the chocolate, and stir. Dump onto parchment or wax paper to dry. They come out in clumps and are really yummy.
