I prepared these chocolate filled strawberries for a book club I attended. They were thoroughly enjoyed and not a single one made it home. I prepared them a few hours ahead of time and stored them in the fridge covered in plastic wrap. They traveled well and just required me to place some of them upright when I arrived as they had fallen over.
