Ingredients:

  • 16 oz pink vanilla flavored melting wafers
  • 2 oz white chocolate for facial details
  • 1 lb fresh long stemmed strawberries
  • 8 oz white chocolate wafers for dipping
  • 1 drop pink oil based food coloring
  • Small candy bows or red fondant
  • Edible gold luster dust

Instructions:

  1. Melt 16 oz pink vanilla flavored melting wafers in the microwave in 30 second intervals until silky.
  2. Pour half into your clean heart mold and use a spoon or spatula to coat the sides entirely. Check for translucent spots by holding it up to the light; if you see light through it, it's too thin. Chill for 10 minutes, then apply a second layer, focusing heavily on the rim.
  3. Wash and thoroughly dry 1 lb fresh long stemmed strawberries. Melt 8 oz white chocolate wafers. Hold the berry by the stem and submerge until mostly covered, then lift and swirl to let the excess drip off. Place on parchment until the surface is matte.
  4. Melt 2 oz white chocolate. Using a small mold or a steady hand on parchment, create the Hello Kitty face shapes. Use a tiny drop of pink oil based food coloring to dye a small portion of white chocolate for the bows if you aren't using pre made ones. The chocolate should feel slightly tacky before you press the bow onto the ear.
  5. Place your dried, dipped berries into a heap on your serving board. If you're feeling fancy, drizzle them with the remaining pink chocolate. Gently unmold the heart shell by peeling the silicone away from the edges first. Flip the heart over the berries so it hides them completely. Attach the Kitty face details to the front of the heart using a glue made of melted chocolate.
