Ingredients
  

  • 12 large strawberries hulled and patted dry
Chocolate Coating
  • 1 cup dark chocolate chips or chopped dark chocolate (60–70%)
  • 1⁄2 cup white chocolate chips or chopped white chocolate
Luxurious Toppings
  • 2 tbsp finely chopped pistachios optional
  • 1 tbsp edible gold leaf use tweezers carefully
  • 1 tsp gold sprinkles or edible pearls optional

Equipment

  • Double boiler or heat-safe bowl
  • Baking sheet lined with parchment
  • Wooden skewers or lollipop sticks

Method
 

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment. Insert a skewer into each strawberry at the stem end.
  2. Melt the dark chocolate in a double boiler or heat-safe bowl over simmering water until smooth; stir gently.
  3. Dip each strawberry into the dark chocolate until two-thirds coated. Gently shake to remove excess; return to parchment.
  4. Melt white chocolate separately. Drizzle or marbelize over the coated strawberries.
  5. While chocolate is still wet, sprinkle chopped pistachios and a small piece of edible gold leaf on each strawberry. Add gold sprinkles for extra glam.
  6. Chill in fridge for at least 2 hours until set and firm.
  7. Serve on a stylish tray, optionally with an extra glazed drizzle. Enjoy your Dubai-inspired elegant treat!

Notes

For variation, use ruby or milk chocolate. You can swap pistachios for finely chopped almonds or freeze-dry strawberry powder for color contrast. Chill before serving for best texture.
