Thank you! Although I don’t like chocolate dipped fruit, this helps me understand why my dipped cake pops had condensation. Great video!

Glad it was helpful! :)

[@laremabella]

Omg. Chocolate dipped fruit is a gift in this life. lol I love it

Whoa! I’ve never seen that “bloom” on chocolate before! Thanks for the tips. Never knew why my strawberries were sweating until now!

Even though the too cold chocolate was super thick, its the only one that didn't get watery

[@christelm1695]

It look the best ! U get more chocolate lol !

[@12cherrychild]

Yeah but that's also way too much chocolate around the strawberry. The ratio of chocolate to strawberry is completely off and will mess up the texture

[@ccastillo1973]

What is the process for washin the Strawberries? Timing wise as to not have them bleed. Thank U for all these awesome tips

[@jeezlouiz]

@@ccastillo1973 im not a pro but i learned not to get them when theyre too ready best to get firmer strawberries so they dont get all soggy and bleed and best to make them same day or night before and put them in the fridge in a container i believe. Also from experience of an attempt before two coats of the wilton chocolate really prevent anything from oozing and a good coat of regular chocolate, i made mine thin and didnt realize until the next day when they were bleeding so yeah just a tip there

Thanks Melissa 🙂 My example of the chocolate bloom is an extreme example, it doesnt normally get that bad. A family member was very quick to snap up that chocolate subscribe plaque, i hardly even finished filming and it was gone😆

[@fluffypenguinbabe]

Haha I love and hate that bloom in equal amounts! On one hand I'm like oh lawd look at that poor chocolate! But the geologist in me thinks it looks like oolitic limestone as seen through a microscope. Bet no one else thought that 😅
