Cute Patriotic Chocolate Dipped Strawberries

We love these super cute patriotic strawberries!  These are really easy to make!  You just need to get the various colors in Chocolate melting  disks (you can find these at Michaels, Jo-Ann’s and even at some Kmart and Walmart Stores.

I prefer the Wilton Candy melts because they make the most consistent chocolate texture.  Here are some other pointers:

• Chill your berries for about 30 minutes before dipping (wash and dry; then put in the fridge)
• Warm your chocolate in small glass bowls 30 seconds at a time in the microwave
• Let these cool and harden on cookie sheets lined with wax paper.  They will take about an hour to full harden if it is not warm inside your house.
• Work on one “look” at a time.  That way you can clean up in between
