Ingredients

1 lb. fresh strawberries, rinsed and dried well 454 g
12 oz. orange candy melts (such as Wilton) 340 g
¼ cup semisweet chocolate chips 35 g
1 12-inch disposable pastry bag

Instructions

Line a large cookie sheet with wax paper or parchment paper. Set aside. Place candy melts in a microwave safe bowl and microwave on high for 1 minute. Stir well. Microwave for 30 seconds more. Stir until smooth.
Dip strawberries into melted candy by using the leaves as a handle. Completely cover all of the berry except the leaves. Place on the prepared cookie sheet. Once you have dipped all of the strawberries, place them in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes.
Meanwhile, pour chocolate chips in the pastry bag. Microwave on high for 1 minute. Massage bag until chips are completely melted. Cut a tiny corner at the tip of the pastry bag. Remove "pumpkins" from the refrigerator and decorate by piping chocolate faces on strawberries or you can also do stripes. Refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes or until completely set. Serve immediately or store in refrigerator for up to 2 days.
