Strawberries are an extremely popular produce choice around Valentine’s Day. They are bright red, juicy, healthy, and somewhat shaped like a heart – how perfect?!
If you’re looking for cute homemade (AND EDIBLE!) gift ideas for your spouse for this Valentine’s Day, these easy and delicious chocolate-covered strawberries are a must! Impress your significant other with a unique gift that both of you will love. If you’re feeling extra nice, you could even share them with your kids (but I highly doubt you’ll want to share)!
