What You'll Need

Tools:

Ingredients:

  • 1lb  fresh pineberries (washed and dried)
  • 1 cup orange candy melts (or white chocolate with orange food coloring)

Instructions:

  • Wash your pineberries and dry them thoroughly. Any moisture can prevent the candy coating from sticking properly.
  • Prepare each berry for dipping by gently pulling back the calyx (the green leafy top) and piercing the top of the berry with a dipping tool or skewer.
  • Dip the berry into the melted orange candy melts, making sure to cover as much of the berry as possible, getting close to the calyx.
  • Lift the berry out of the candy melts, allowing any excess to drip back into the cup. Lightly wipe the bottom on the rim of the container if needed.
  • Place the dipped berry on parchment paper or a silicone mat. Repeat the process with the remaining berries.
  • Allow the coating to fully set before adding the drizzle.
  • Fill a disposable piping bag with the remaining melted orange candy melts. Snip a very small opening at the tip using scissors.
  • Drizzle the candy melts over each berry in a zigzag motion to give them a carrot-like appearance.
  • Let the drizzle set completely, then plate and enjoy!
