[Music] hi everyone welcome back to pretty pastel pastries and if you are new here welcome my name is giselle now for today’s tutorial i’m going to be walking through this valentine’s day strawberry arrangement i really hope you all enjoy now without further ado let’s go ahead and get started so our first step is going to be melting our stover sweet shop meltables at 30 second intervals at a time and this one is in the color ultra white now for milk chocolate i’ve been experimenting with different types of chocolates and this one is by far my most favorite one although it does require tempering this one’s from the brand calibo in a milk chocolate and if you guys haven’t tried it out i really you know hope you guys do end up trying it out later down the road or if you guys are looking to invest in a really good chocolate i tried this one and many others out myself but this one is by far the best one in my opinion so i’m going to go ahead and temper that and i’m going to place the other one in the microwave for 30 second intervals now once we have this all nice and melted we’re going to be back and move on to the next step so we’re now back with our stover sweet shop multiples and i’m showing you here the wonderful consistency that it has it’s really runny and just overall really great to work with whether dipping chocolate strawberries or other treats such as cake pops rice krispies or making chocolate covered oreos now to color this i’m going to use an oil-based coloring this works perfectly with our chocolate here it just blends super easily so i’ll be using the chef master in the color pink remember a little bit of this product really does go a long way so make sure you guys do add a very small amount and increase as you go so now that we have colored our multiples let’s get started on dipping our strawberries so we’re going to grab a toothpick and place it on the left or the right hand side of that strawberry stem then we’re going to simply pick up all the leaves this is just going to make it so much more easier to dip inside of your chocolate without having any leaves get caught up in the chocolate so now we’re just going to also make sure this is completely dry you never want to have or add any moisture inside of your chocolate this can potentially ruin it and we don’t want that to ever happen so just make sure it is dry then we’re going to take your strawberry and dip this down inside our chocolate then we’re going to lift up and shake off the excess you can either place it on a parchment paper or silicone mat whichever one you guys do have available it works exactly the same way so now i’m just going to kind of shake it up a little bit just to make sure everything you know goes down and it looks nice and seamless then if you do see any air pockets feel free to just grab a skewer or a toothpick you’re going to want to just like poke the hole and then go around in a circle and just like that it like levels down and it looks nice and seamless and that is pretty much all the process there is to dipping a strawberry so once that’s done we’re just going to repeat that same process throughout the rest of our pink strawberries and we’ll be right back so we’re now back with our milk chocolate and have already tempered this off camera and make sure that it’s ready for dipping this chocolate has an amazing consistency as well and i had no problems when melting so exactly the same thing as we did with our pink strawberries we’re going to dip them and shake off the excess we’re also going to place them here on our parchment paper so on to our decoration we’re going to pipe out some letters so we’re going to do an x and an o and i actually didn’t end up using the rose i think i just like forgot about it in my refrigerator and i didn’t end up using that one but i did end up using the x and the o so it’s very simple we’re just going to cut a small tip on our piping bag and just go ahead and like fill in that small little cavity tap it down so it’s like nice and seamless and we’re going to place this in there for about three to four minutes or until it’s completely set so now for this part of our decoration i am going to use these really cute heart sprinkles this one is from the brand sweet tooth fairy and you can find this at your local michael’s craft store um i believe they also saw like different kinds of hearts like all over the internet and on amazon so i’ll go ahead and check for you guys just in case i find anything i’ll link it down below in my description box so i’m going to use my piping bag again and i’m going to add this really cute sprinkle in the center for one of my pink strawberries now for the other ones we’re going to drizzle them add some really cute decoration and i’m going to leave this small little time lapse here with me decorating all of my strawberries i’m going to show you exactly how i did it and so you can do it by yourself if you are doing you know this for your small business or valentine’s day or you want to do this for your friends and family for that day as well you can do this in so many different colors other types of sprinkles different letters on the strawberries i mean there’s like endless amount of things to do on the strawberries but this is one of the ways that i wanted to decorate this really cute heart box which i really enjoy and if you are new here on my channel i want to welcome you and say hello my name is giselle and this is my youtube channel i love making chocolate covered strawberries dipped pretzels dipped oreos i love making everything look super elegant and beautiful and just super sparkly because who doesn’t love sparkle i i love sparkles so and i also love to teach new techniques

and leave it down below in my comment section i would love to read your guys’s suggestions and you know see where i can do a video of it and then just show you guys exactly what you guys want to learn so that is what i’m here for and i’m really happy to be able to teach this amazing community i love it so much you guys are the absolute best and if you aren’t already go ahead and hit that subscribe button down below also turn on that little bell icon to notify you the next time that i upload to you guys can see that new video and you know learn from that new technique so yeah thank you guys so much and also don’t forget to hit that like button because that really does help out my channel a lot now going back to the tutorial i’m going to show you exactly how i did these like really cute swirls on there and by the way these these little swirls don’t have to be perfect that is the amazing thing about this technique is nothing has to be perfect here um you can just do some really random swirls and asses and different kinds of like shapes and everything’s going to come together so let me show you exactly how i did that here so starting off with our piping bag we’re going to cut like a medium tip on there you don’t necessarily want this to be super thin but that is also an option here i did them like medium sized we’re just going to do like these sixes and they don’t have to be all the same size they can be smaller ones and bigger ones they’re all just going to go really well with this specific design and also another tip just make sure they are kind of close to each other um the closer the better so after this we’re just going to like finish this all off with some non-pearls those are just in the color white they also come in a lot of different colors you can also do gold pink red so many different colors out there and here is that super easy strawberry it looks a little bit difficult but as you guys saw not that difficult now for our next strawberry design we’re going to use this pink piping bag this time and we’re going to cut a fairly thin line on there as opposed to the other one where it was like medium sized so for this design it’s going to be just a little bit different so since this is a little bit thinner it is going to dry out a lot more faster as opposed to the other one just because the other one had a little bit more product and you know it wouldn’t set as easily so just keep this in mind but when you do pipe just like i’m showing you here in the video um pipe a couple like sixes and then add sprinkles and then pipe more and then add more sprinkles so just in case so you don’t run out of time and then you don’t have time to add sprinkles so i don’t want that to happen to you so just go ahead and pipe and add some sprinkles so it does not set on you so towards the end of our strawberry making we want to make these look extra glam so of course we’re going to use glitter today i’ll be using the brand shine dessert glitter this one is in the color eskimo and let me tell you this is my favorite glitter of all time like this glitter right here i i recommend you if you take anything from this video that i recommend it’s this glitter it’s my favorite one ever and it just like amps up your strawberry or your desserts to like the next level i use this also on my cupcakes i used it on my last cupcake video and the glitter on there just makes a difference like it just makes it pop and i just love it overall last but not least we’re going to add all of our strawberries inside of this really cute heart box i purchased some from target they also had it in the color red and i just added this really nice ribbon in the center and i made sure to add a little bit of hot glue in the back just to make sure everything was super secured now at the bottom i just have some regular red crinkle paper and we’re just going to start layering all of our strawberries right on top so now that we have all of our strawberries fitted inside i see that i have a couple of empty spaces around my box so just to make this look a little bit more fuller i’m going to add some truffles inside and also these heart chocolates i found at target so i got all those little candies at target they had a lot more others but these are the ones that caught my eye because they’re so they’re so pretty and another thing that you can add inside of your heart box is a topper we have a lot of different toppers on our etsy shop we have some that say happy valentine’s day be mine i love you and they also come in different colors so if you’re also looking for toppers for your boxes go ahead and check out our etsy shop we’ll leave it down below in the description box thank you all so much for watching and i hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial don’t forget to subscribe to my channel and like this video i’ll catch you guys on my next tutorial bye guys have a lovely day you

Great job ! 😍 What red chocolate do you use ?🥰🥰
I love watching you videos!! I started my small business a couple months ago. Your videos and tips help a lot! Do you have any tips when it comes to prepping for large orders? I spend a lot of my time washing and drying the strawberries. Do yo have any suggestions that can help me?
❤❤💜💜💖💖
I really really want to start doing this but I feel I would be horrible at it. You are awesome!! And thanks for sharing ❤️
I’m So glad you are back! I’ve been waiting for you to make some new videos 🙌🏼😀
What is in the pipping bags, the red and pink?
Where did you get your heart shaped box from
New to your channel and was wondering what's in the piping bags? Is it icing or chocolate? I want to learn how to do different things on my strawberries. BTW very beautiful 😍
I have Callebaut W2 white callets…can I add candy colouring once I’ve tempered it? I’ve never tried adding colouring. Also, can gel food colouring be added or that would ruin the chocolate? I’ve just learned how to temper and have done many recipes but, I’m still learning 😊🙋🏻♀️
You're so sweet!
Teach me how to do those swirls 😫😫 is there a specific consistency the chocolate has to be ? I tried and my chocolate was too runny made it look thick
Hi I"m new to your Channel. And I"m also a newbie. I love how easy it is to make Chocolate Covered Strawberries.
do you think these boxes would fit twelve strawberries is arranged differently?
Hey not to be a bother but where did you get the boxes
Great job 👏 👍
I love your videos! Quick question, how do you prep for a big order, what is the window for the strawberries to not moisten up once you do them and you giving them to the client? how long can the chocolate covered strawberries be in the fridge for?
I watched this and it inspired me to make sum Mula $$$ so imma try to make this and thx sm
What’s is in the bag made to use the letters
Your Valentine's Strawberries are so beautiful, I can't wait to try them out with my family. Thank you so much for teaching us.
Would you be able to make a video on how to temper the chocolate? I struggle with that so much for some reason. My chocolate burns always.
Thank you in advance 💞
Sorry. What's in the piping bag? That sticks the decorations
Thank you for this! And for suggesting your chocolate!!
Such beautiful berries. What brand of pretzels do you use?

Love your presentations..you are the BEST..please do more❣️

Hey! When you put your strawberries on parchment paper do they leak due to the exposed part on the bottom? I use the same technique but my strawberries tends to leak sometimes.
Omg so cute keep the good work up
So you put the chocolate in the piping bag to get the letters to stick to the strawberries ?
Where did you buy your box?
Love your videos!!! How did you make the box for the heart box?
Absolutely beautiful, I love watching your videos, you are very inspiring and helpful keep the videos coming because I will be watching, thank you for sharing ❤
So creative, thank you for sharing your tips
Hi!! Where did you get the cup you dip your strawberries in and what’s it called? 🙂
This is high key fire! I will definitely try to make these, but honestly, I might just buy chocolate covered strawberries from Costco and decorate them myself. I know I’m only skipping one step, but I’m lazy 🤪
for some reason my chocolate melts dont have a running consistency, any tips?
Where do you get your packaging materials from?
Do a video on where to get supplies
Hey, why don't you use colored meltables? Is there a difference?
Thanks so much, I’ve learned son much from you…
May I ask where do you get your toothpicks

What chocolate is cheap and best for dipping and moulding
It's couventure chocolate is good????dark or milk??
What do you do the the remaining in the drizzle bag? Do i save or toss?
Hi Giselle! Me and my grandma love watching your videos and dipping strawberries with you, but my grandma had a question. How do you get the chocolate on the berry to stop clumping up? We try shaking a lot but idk if it's working. Also how do you keep the berry stem vibrant green?
Thank you and we appreciate you for doing this ❤❤ (please reply)
