On a Japanese site I saw the tutorial on the strawberry men
and so I wanted to remake them … too funny and too good,
I also added a saucer made of dark chocolate , it might be an idea that will impress your guests.
And now … LIGHT THE FIRES !
INGREDIENTS:
- A basket of strawberries rather big
- Two Fuji apples I chose this quality that I like a lot
-4 Blocks of dark chocolate
- A bowl of water with salt
- A sheet of baking paper and cardboard
- Sugar candies in the shape of heart
WEAR THE APRON , WASH YOUR HANDS, BEGIN !
- First prepare a bowl with water and a pinch of salt,
will prevent the apple dessicates ,
with a corer formed by digging a lot of balls in the apples , put them in water and salt,
making sure to dry them before putting them in strawberries ,
also carved out a niche in the strawberries with the digging and proceed with the insertion of the balls of apples strawberries .
- Melt the chocolate in a double boiler and dip the strawberries on the side of the top as to form a cap ,
with the aid of a toothpick , with the melted chocolate ,
make the eyes and nose of the little man,
with candy sugar t make heart-shaped mouth .
- Now we prepare a dish of chocolate to place to lay our strawberries,
on a sheet of parchment paper resting a plate upside down with a pen and draw the outline ,
with a pastry cutter make a smaller circle in the center ,
drawn lines , glue the parchment paper to a paper,
Put the melted chocolate in a piping bag and started to follow the contours of creating a dense network as a doily ,
given free rein to your imagination . Put in the freezer for at least a couple of hours.
Et voila ‘ … a plate of funny strawberries !
