The BEST Chocolate Covered Fruits To Eat

Fruit is always good to have on any occasion, but sometimes you just want to spice it up a bit like chocolate! Of course, not all fruits are the best to be covered in chocolate. This list is the BEST chocolate covered fruits to have for any occasion, even if you want to have them all to yourself!

Strawberries

Chocolate covered strawberries are the most popular fruit to be covered in chocolate. Made for any occasion, these delicious strawberries can make anyone’s day! Some people get fancy with their chocolate-covered strawberries by drizzling chocolate across the fruit. Others may dip the strawberries in different kinds of chocolate such as white or dark chocolate. Some people may cut the stem off the fruit so they can dip the whole fruit in and not just part of it.

This chocolate-covered fruit is a great addition to any gathering or even to make for just yourself. And men, your partner would appreciate this thoughtful gesture anytime! Chocolate strawberries are always the best gift to give for any occasion or even to gift for yourself!

Bananas

While it may sound unappealing to some, chocolate-covered bananas are a treat. The best way to enjoy these treats is to freeze them! Instead of putting the bananas in the refrigerator after making them, put them in the freezer and enjoy them the next day! This chocolate-covered fruit can be enjoyed in the summertime, especially if you freeze them, but you can have them anytime!

You don’t even have to have this banana in just plain chocolate. Other mays top their chocolate-covered fruit in nuts or drizzle it with a different flavor of chocolate. Besides, bananas might taste better coated in chocolate. Try it for yourself and enjoy this delicious fruit whenever you’re craving a snack!

Apples

Forget caramel apples! Chocolate covered apples are the way to go! With a satisfying, crisp taste, this chocolate-covered fruit is a great treat to have for any season, especially during the apple season. People get very decorative with this fruit after it is made. From various toppings ranging from nuts to chocolate drizzle to sprinkles, there are so many options to coat this fruit!

If you do love caramel apples, then just add chocolate to them as well! There are some people that will dip apples in caramel and chocolate for an amazing combination! Cut the apple up into slices and share them with friends and family. Or, if you’re feeling bold, bite into the apple to keep it all for yourself! It may be hard to eat that way but who says you can’t try!

Grapes

A refreshing and tasty option, grapes are a great chocolate-covered fruit to enjoy! With a small fruit, they are easy to pop into your mouth and snack on them whenever you so, please. There are many different ways to enjoy this simple treat, and byways, I mean designs. Add sprinkles on top for more of a crunch. Place them on a stick and put them on a tray for your guests to pluck off and enjoy.

These are a very easy treat to make for any gathering or party. Even if you just want to make them for yourself and enjoy, go ahead and do so!

Cherries

Cherries are a classic to have and they are always a topping for any dessert. But now, this fruit can be a dessert all on its own!

But you can also make this chocolate-covered fruit in your own home, and you won’t even need a stick to dip this fruit since there is a stem you can use instead! There are many different recipes to go off on to have this delicious fruit served.

For the holiday season, some people will mix in peppermint to give the cherries a mint chocolate taste. Another popular recipe is to soak the cherries in brandy before dipping them in chocolate. There is also the traditional milk chocolate coating to have if you would rather have it simple. Either way, this chocolate-covered fruit can be enjoyed in whichever way you make it.

With the slices, you can share this chocolate-covered fruit with your guests or keep them to yourself as a delicious snack!

There are some people that get very decorative with this fruit. With the whole fruit, they may decorate it like the fruit is wearing a tuxedo.
