Tips & Tricks (5)

Chocolate Melting Magic 🍫
Use a double boiler or microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, to prevent chocolate from burning and ensure a smooth, glossy finish.
Citrus Prep Perfection 🍊
Pat mandarin orange segments completely dry with paper towels before dipping to prevent water from causing the chocolate to seize or become grainy.
Sea Salt Sprinkle Technique 🧂
Sprinkle flaky sea salt immediately after dipping while the chocolate is still wet to ensure the salt crystals adhere perfectly and provide a delightful flavor contrast.
Chill for Crisp Coating ❄️
Place chocolate-covered oranges on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to quickly set the chocolate and create a satisfying snap.
Coconut Oil Secret 🥥
Add a teaspoon of coconut oil to your melted chocolate to create a smoother, more glossy coating that hardens beautifully and prevents cracking.
