Anytime an occasion arises, the most popular form of chocolate is certainly Chocolate Covered Strawberries. Whether it is for Valentine's Day, Mother's Day, Father's Day, Sister's Day (just kidding, but I think there might be a day like that), it seems that Chocolate Covered Strawberries is our default choice. It is a pretty, tasty and partially sinful indulgence. But whether this delicacy send you to the pinnacle of euphoria, you can be pretty darn sure that this delicacy will put a smile on everyone's face. (So the next time you fight with your loved one, get 'em one of these *wink*)

So what makes Covered Chocolate Strawberries so special?

Frankly, I don't know. Maybe it is the marriage of the strawberry's tanginess and sweetness of the chocolate. Others say it is simply an aphrodisiac. Nonetheless, the origins of chocolate covered strawberries started in the 1960s in a small boutique chocolate store in Chicago (so they say). There's not many secrets to making the best batch of chocolate covered strawberries but the first obvious choice is to get a fresh box of strawberries. Secondly, it is extremely important to melt the chocolate in a right temperature. Once done, dipped the strawberry and voila! There you go, simple enough.

But we have a better suggestion - Come to Cafe Cioccolato every Friday for "Stawberry Fridays"! 

I mean, we dipped them in imported chocolate. Your significant other will thank you profusely.
