Snacktime doesn't get any cuter than these adorable Kiwi Chocolate Whales!
This recipe is a fun alternative to chocolate-dipped kiwi slices and a tasty addition to any dessert or fruit platter.
Enjoy these delicious treats as they are, or stick them onto an ice lolly for a mess-free option.
Chocolate kiwi whales are also perfect for themed birthday parties, especially topped onto cupcakes.
Do feel free to swap kiwi for halved strawberries or even blueberries.
