Patriotic Strawberries

Don’t these look patriotic? When I was a caterer, I made these by the boatload, and they’re super quick. Even if you’re making 200 of them. But you won’t be. Probably. If you don’t have blue sugar, you could just tint some of the candy coating blue and dip the lower third again after the white hardens, or you could just drizzle blue onto the white.

Wash and DRY (that’s key here) your berries. Put some blue sugar crystals in a small ramekin, about 3/4” deep (the sugar, not the bowl). Melt some white chocolate or candy melts, dip the berries, and allow the excess to drip off. The dip the lower third of the berry in the sugar. Chill until ready to serve. Bask in the compliments.
