Tips:

  • Choose fresh, ripe fruits for the wreath. They should be firm enough to hold their shape when dipped in chocolate.
  • Wash and dry the fruits thoroughly before dipping them in chocolate. This will help the chocolate adhere evenly.
  • If you are using a chocolate bar, chop it into small pieces before melting it. This will help it melt more evenly.
  • Use a double boiler or a heatproof bowl set over a saucepan of simmering water to melt the chocolate. This will help prevent the chocolate from burning.
  • Stir the chocolate constantly while melting it. This will help prevent it from seizing.
  • If the chocolate becomes too thick, add a little bit of vegetable oil or coconut oil to thin it out.
  • Dip the fruits in the melted chocolate one at a time, using a fork or tongs. Make sure to coat the fruit evenly.
  • Place the dipped fruits on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Refrigerate the wreath for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate is set.
  • Once the chocolate is set, decorate the wreath with sprinkles, nuts, or other desired toppings.
