Last year for Easter my mom made a batch of these adorable chocolate dipped strawberries that looked like carrots. They were a hit with the kids and adults. The kids thought they were fun and the adults thought they were delicious! It enhanced the spring table setting with a fun edible treat!
My kids have already requested that we make them this year and are something I hope to make with my kids every Easter! Such a simple and fun activity you can have them join you in with the end result being a tasty treat. These are great to serve alone as a festive spring dessert or even top a cake with. I’m thinking carrot cake, are you? Enjoy!
