The combination of juicy, fresh strawberries with rich, dark chocolate is always a winner, and the fact that they look like flowers just adds to the cuteness.

Creating these chocolate lollipops is as easy as it gets. They’re perfect for everyday get-togethers, picnics, and special occasions such as Mother’s Day, birthdays, and Valentine’s Day.

How to Make Strawberry Snacks

  1. Slice the strawberries.
  2. Cut a V-shape at the pointy end.
  3. Melt the chocolate and dollop it onto parchment paper. Spread it using a toothpick.
  4. Arrange two lemon balm leaves and the strawberry flower on top. Insert the lolly stick.

Tips for Success

  • Be sure to dry the strawberry slices on a paper towel, so the chocolate will stick.
  • Choose pointy-shaped strawberries for the best results.
  • Don’t slice the berries too thin.
  • If you don’t have enough chocolate for the lolly to stick, spoon a bit directly onto the stick, then insert it.

Possible Variations

  • Dark chocolate: Swap for white or milk chocolate, or even flavored chocolates such as caramel, coffee, or nuts.
  • Strawberries: Cut out flower shapes using watermelon, mango, cantaloupe, dragonfruit, grapes, or kiwi. Shape by hand or with flower cookie cutters.
  • Lemon balm: You can use mint or omit.
  • Add crunch: Pipe the chocolate discs onto graham crackers, cookies, or pretzels. Then top with the strawberry flowers.
  • Presentation: For a bigger bite, halve the strawberries instead of slicing, cut out the V-shape, then place them face down into the chocolate.

How to Store Leftovers

Keep them in an airtight container in the fridge. Enjoy them on the same day.

FAQs

Can I make these chocolate snacks in advance?

Yes, a few hours in advance is fine, any longer than that and the strawberry may start to seep and detach from the chocolate.

Can I freeze the treats?

Yes, you can freeze them (without the lemon balm leaves).

I don’t have lolly sticks. Can I still make these?

Absolutely! They’ll make a great summer snack with or without the lolly sticks.
