Four Grape Chocolate Hearts are decorated with green grapes arranged like flowers with small chocolate balls along the edges.

Grape Chocolate Hearts Ingredients

Please be sure to scroll down to the recipe card below for the complete details!

A bunch of green grapes, a bowl of dark chocolate pieces, and a small dish of chocolate sprinkles rest on a gray surface.
  • Dark chocolate: Use a good-quality dark chocolate or baking chocolate.
  • Grapes: Look for firm, oblong (and bright) green grapes. Red or purple grapes would be cute, too.
  • Chocolate balls: Use to outline and frame the hearts. I buy them online (see link below).

How to Make Grape Chocolate Hearts

  1. Final details: Arrange the chocolate balls along the outline of the hearts. Allow to set.

Tips for Success

  • Be sure to dry the halved grapes with a paper towel to ensure the chocolate sticks properly.
  • Be sure to use parchment paper, and lift the hearts off carefully once set.

Where to Buy?

Chocolate ball sprinkles are available on Amazon.

Possible Variations

  • Grapes: You can swap for raspberries, blueberries, blackberries, kiwi berries, or physalis.
  • Dark chocolate: White or milk chocolate.
  • Chocolate ball sprinkles: Mini chocolate chips or similar round sprinkles.

How to Store Leftovers

Keep them covered in the fridge. They are best to eat on the same day.

FAQs

What chocolate do you recommend?

I use a baking chocolate or my favorite good-quality dark chocolate with around 55-70% cocoa solids. Avoid chocolate melts. If you find the chocolate is too thick, add a teaspoon of neutral coconut oil to make it easier to pipe.

Can I make these in advance?

Yes, preparing the hearts a few hours ahead is fine. Since the fruit is cut, they need to be enjoyed the same day you make them.

      Hi, I know, I’m so sorry! Hoping they will restock soon. Look out for a Lekue Decopen (also sold out on Amazon). Perhaps you can find it locally to you?
