Q : I'm planning to make chocolate covered strawberries & banana slices.
1. Can I cover a plate with plastic wrap & then put the strawberries on or does it need to be wax or parchment?
2. Do I cover the plate with plastic wrap?
3. Do I leave it in the freezer overnight or just the regular fridge?
Thanks in advance!
A : Yes, you can cover the plate with plastic wrap, wax or parchment paper. But, the cover over the dipped fruit should not touch the fruit. You might use a bowl to cover them. I use plastic Tupperware that is taller than the fruit and has a tight cover. Because it's plastic I don't even need to line the plate. Because it's overnight you don't have to freeze it.

How would i keep chocolate covered strawberries cold for school?

Q : I am going to make some chocolate covered strawberries for my boyfriend since it is almost our anniversary, i will have to bring them to school so how will i get through the whole day without the chocolate melting? I want to put them in a plastic sandwich bag and put it in my bookbag but i think it'll get squished and melt. Any suggestions on how to bring them to school?
A : Try getting one of those square Glad containers that are about 2 or 3 inches deep. Ah, how many are you planning on taking? What time of day do you plan on giving them to him? See, that would determine your next plan. If you'll be giving them to him before school, then straight out of you fridge should be cold enough to keep the chocolate from melting. But, if it will be in the afternoon, you'll need to pack this container inside maybe a gallon zip-lock bag with a frozen freezer gel-pak to keep them cold. I hope you find an answer that will work for you. Peace

3. Do I leave it in the freezer overnight or just the regular fridge?
Thanks in advance!
A : Yes, you can cover the plate with plastic wrap, wax or parchment paper. But, the cover over the dipped fruit should not touch the fruit. You might use a bowl to cover them. I use plastic Tupperware that is taller than the fruit and has a tight cover. Because it's plastic I don't even need to line the plate. Because it's overnight you don't have to freeze it.

How would i keep chocolate covered strawberries cold for school?

Q : I am going to make some chocolate covered strawberries for my boyfriend since it is almost our anniversary, i will have to bring them to school so how will i get through the whole day without the chocolate melting? I want to put them in a plastic sandwich bag and put it in my bookbag but i think it'll get squished and melt. Any suggestions on how to bring them to school?
A : Try getting one of those square Glad containers that are about 2 or 3 inches deep. Ah, how many are you planning on taking? What time of day do you plan on giving them to him? See, that would determine your next plan. If you'll be giving them to him before school, then straight out of you fridge should be cold enough to keep the chocolate from melting. But, if it will be in the afternoon, you'll need to pack this container inside maybe a gallon zip-lock bag with a frozen freezer gel-pak to keep them cold. I hope you find an answer that will work for you. Peace
