Chocolate covered Strawberries Craft Along this Sunday at 3:00PM EST!
🕑 Added 2024-02-07 15:41:14 +0000 UTCGood Morning!
I've had a really funny idea for a Valentine's Day treat and thought it would make for an entertaining craft along! So let's get together this Sunday and see how this goes!
Things you'll want on hand...
White Chocolate (Or white candy melts)
Red Chocolate (Or red candy melts)
Sculpting tools
Parchment paper
Fresh strawberries (rinsed and patted dry)
Edible powder pigments in primary colors as well as black and white
Vodka (to work with the pigments)
Fine paint brushes
I'm going to make a small batch of red and white modeling chocolate in advance, in case I want to use some. The recipe for how to do this is featured in the following episode...

Ugh I missed it

We’re having crazy thunderstorms where I’m at today and it will be the perfect background when I get off work and can watch this!

Thank you Christine, much appreciated! Can't wait to watch 🌹

So stoked to be able to state, "Please accept my apologies, however, I am unable to attend your football party as I have a craft along to attend." :o)

Homage to Stranger Things! brilliant ; D

Hope everyone has an absolute blast!! Sadly I'll be cleaning for company and crafting my homemade Chex Mix, peanut butter chocolate chip pizookie, and other snacks galore that day (super bowl). I'm not a sports person, but marriage is about compromise lol. XD I'm into the snacking part of super bowl LOL. That's about it! Having said that I would much rather be tuning into the livestream, followed swiftly and surely by the precious Puppy Bowl. Perhaps I can sneak away and hide somewhere like a closet and tune in like the Gollum I am while my husband wanders around "JENNNY!! HEY! Where did you go?!? I need some help in the kitchen!" *continues to quietly munch on Chex Mix in the closet and types away on laptop*

Sigh. I have a girls date planned fir the movies and lunch and stuff to see Lisa Frankenstein. This craft along would have been one of my favorites. Oh well... Have fun everyone 💌
Christine McConnell
That's a great question Jessica! I think I'll have about three of those bars on hand, because you'll want to be able to dip them adequately :D
Daphne Emery
I cannot wait!! This will definitely be an absolute thrill for my first craft-a-long! I have been a long time fan and one of my best friends look so much like you I am going to try to get her to join me! 🥰
Miso
I’m so excited ❤️❤️❤️
Jennifer Lewis
Sounds like fun!

Voilà,I've already set my alarm because at this time in France I would already be in my pajamas and ready to go to bed. But I'm going to try to resist to participate in my first livestream 😍.
Rochelle
Yay! So excited!
Jessica Bunce
My deranged scientist brain craves units! Say for the red chocolate bar, is 1 - 7 oz chocolate bar from Oh Nuts adequate? Do we need extra for casualties…thanks!
Christine McConnell
Hi Eric! I've heard you can use lemon juice as an alternative :D
Christine McConnell
Hi Emily! It shouldn't make or break it! It will just affect how light you can get a few small areas. :D
Elizabeth Ann Scarborough
Yummy.
Emily Martin
How important is the white edible pigment? I found a set on Amazon that had all of the colors but white. I can’t find a set that has all of them.
