In 1989, with a $1,500 cash advance, having just moved to a new town, Shari took her passion and hobby of chocolate dipping strawberries and turned it into a business.

The chocolate covered fruit doesn't stop there – we also swirl and drizzle our chocolate covered strawberries with delicious milk, dark and white chocolate, and top them with chocolate chips, nuts, and more treats that they're guaranteed to love.

We pack each berry by hand in protective packaging, complete with ice packs, to keep the fruit sweet and cool.

Both strawberries and chocolate are categorized as aphrodisiacs… so by coating a strawberry in chocolate you are creating the perfect storm of love. What better way to finish a romantic dinner than to share a plate of sexy chocolate dipped berries, dressed to the nines and dipped in whipped cream?

Later, in Ancient Rome, strawberries were often consumed during festivities celebrated in honour of Adonis, the mortal lover of the goddess Aphrodite, as according to myth, strawberries grew when Aphrodite's tears mixed with the blood of the dead Adonis and dropped into the dirt.

Our gold sugar-shimmered champagne berries have all the festiveness and flavor of champagne without the alcohol.

In fact, chocolate-covered strawberries were originally paired together because they're two of the world's most famous aphrodisiacs. Today chocolate-covered strawberries are a common Valentine's Day treat, and are often found on buffet tables at weddings.

People quite like textural contrast in food, and chocolate is great for that because you can bite into it, but then it melts in the mouth. Crunchy things with a soft interior tend to be highly liked. This may also explain the extra special appeal of a chocolate-coated strawberry."

Pack about a quart of berries in a zip-close bag. Each bag should then be put into a disposable storage container to protect the fruit during its transport.

But chocolate doesn't have, from the chemical standpoint, it doesn't have any aphrodisiac qualities. But it's a very sensual item. First its color: it's deep and dark. It's also a food that melts exactly at the same temperature as your body temperature.

Chocolate raises levels of phenylethylamine (PEA), “the love chemical”. This chemical gets our hearts pumping, increases blood pressure, heart, and respiratory rates, and increases feelings of joy. PEA is released when we are sexually aroused and can peak during orgasm.

Legend has it that if you break a double strawberry in half and share it with a member of the opposite sex, you will fall in love with each other. The strawberry was a symbol for Venus, the Goddess of Love, because of its heart shapes and red color.
