Gather your ingredients.
Wash and pat the strawberries dry. Make sure they are thoroughly dried before dipping.
Melt dark chocolate and coconut oil in a bowl.
Dip each strawberry in the chocolate holding the stem or using a toothpick or skewer.
Place the dipped strawberries on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Let them harden at room temperature for about 30 minutes or chill them in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes for faster setting.
Melt the white chocolate in a bowl and transfer it to a small ziplock bag. Snip off a tiny corner and create a piping bag. Drizzle white chocolate on top of the strawberries to make stripes. Serve and enjoy!

PRO TIPS:

Choose berries with a deep, even red color throughout. Avoid any with pale patches, green areas or white tips, as these indicate under-ripeness.

Look for a healthy shine on the surface, not a dullness or wrinkles.

Strawberries should be firm but slightly give to gentle pressure. Avoid mushy or bruised berries.

Fresh strawberries have bright green caps and stems. Brown or wilted caps and stems indicate past-their-prime berries.

If buying pre-packaged berries, avoid containers with excessive juice at the bottom, indicating bruised or damaged berries.

Be sure to dry strawberries thoroughly before dipping in chocolate!
