Parchment paper
# How to Make It:
01 -
Ensure strawberries are completely dry by patting gently with paper towels, then allow to air dry for 10 minutes.
02 -
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set it aside.
03 -
Melt white candy melts in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly until smooth and fully liquefied.
04 -
Hold each strawberry by the stem and dip into the melted white coating. Drag along the parchment paper when placing to create a ghost tail effect.
05 -
Let dipped strawberries rest at room temperature until set, or refrigerate briefly to speed up hardening.
06 -
Melt milk or dark chocolate melts. Transfer melted chocolate into a small Ziploc bag and snip off a tiny corner.
07 -
Pipe chocolate onto the white-coated strawberries to form ghost faces, including eyes and mouth.
08 -
Allow chocolate faces to set completely before serving. Refrigerate if necessary.
# Extra Information:
01 -
Strawberries must be fully dry prior to dipping to ensure even chocolate coating.
02 -
A double boiler or microwave in short intervals can be used to melt chocolate safely.
03 -
Stir in a small amount of coconut oil if candy melts are too thick for dipping.
04 -
Ready-made candy eyes can simplify decoration.
05 -
Store finished treats in an airtight container lined with paper towels to prevent moisture build-up.
