Valentines Day Strawberry Wine Box

[Music] hi everyone welcome to pretty pastel pastries my name is giselle today i have you guys another valentine's day video now today's special box is going to have our wine roses and strawberries all combined into one box i can't wait to show you guys what colors we're going to play with today now let's go ahead and hop onto the tools and supplies so let's first start off with my favorite candy melts of all time guys it is from the brand ghirardelli these are both a 30 ounce bag i have them in white chocolate and dark chocolate as well they also carry them in milk chocolate which is also super delicious now right here i have my oxo silicone cups these are my favorite cups to melt all of my chocolate we're gonna need two small spatulas my pre-washed strawberries lined with a silicone mat now right onto decoration right over here have these really cute heart sprinkles these are from the brand sprinkle pop i have wilton white pearls now right here i have two sugar art products the first one is going to be sterling pearl in the color fairy next up i have a diamond dust and this one is in the color strawberry and for pink candy coloring remember guys candy coloring is specifically for chocolate you don't want to use a gel or liquid base that is definitely not going to work and that is going to ruin your chocolate so always invest in a really good candy coloring this one is in the color candy onto our silicone molds i found these at amazon these are small little butterflies and i also have a letter mold you're gonna need some wine of your choice or you can totally opt out and i'll show you guys another method in which we can like decorate our box without using the wine we're gonna need some chocolate hazelnut cookies some toothpicks two small brushes some scissors piping bags and a hershey's chocolate bar so we covered everything here in today's video now if you want to learn how to make this awesome strawberry box stay tuned so our first step is going to be placing these individually in our microwave for 30 second intervals and we'll be right back so these have been in the microwave for 30 second intervals and you always want to grab your spatula and always ensure you give this a really good mix just so that the heat distributes evenly and i'm going to do the same to my dark chocolate so we're going to place this into the microwave for 30 seconds more and we're just going to completely melt it and always ensure you go ahead and give this a really good mix now i have just finished taking this out of the microwave and you should be left with this consistency it is super runny and it will not give you problems when dipping your strawberries and it's the same with our dark chocolate so this is now ready for dipping i'm actually going to reserve one ounce of this white chocolate for decorating our letters later on so let me just go ahead and do that so now let's go ahead and start dipping your strawberries so it's super easy guys we're just going to grab a berry and you want to ensure it's always dry next we're going to place our toothpick on the left or the right hand side of the berry you're gonna place it about halfway you're gonna pick up all of the leaves now from here we're gonna dip the strawberry right up to here so just dip your strawberry and try to go as high as you would like i like to keep it right up to here now we're gonna just simply pick it up and just take off the excess so now that we took off as much as we can i like lifting it up and just shaking it off a little bit now it's perfect we're going to place it on our silicone mat right here and it's just going to finish setting up at room temperature now to our last four berries we're going to use the same white chocolate and we're going to add some color mill in the color candy always ensure to give this a really good mix and i'm going to add about 10 drops and you want to give this a really good [Music] mix so now that we colored our chocolate let's go ahead and finish the rest of our strawberries so let's first start off with our white chocolate i'm just going to cut a small tip on this one and this is going to be for our butterflies so it's super easy guys you're just going to grab your mold and you just want to fill up all of the butterfly and you just want to add a little bit extra chocolate to the middle now it should look like this and after fill up all of them these are going into the refrigerator for about seven to ten minutes now moving on to our pink chocolate i'm gonna use this to spell out the words right on here i love you so in the meantime we're just going to grab a cutting board and i just added some wax paper we're going to open up our hershey's milk chocolate bar and we're just going to cut this into small little sections for a chocolate strawberry so we now have our letters and our butterflies out of the refrigerator it is super easy you're just going to want to pull away from the sides and our letters come out super easily so let me go ahead and do that to all of them and it's gonna be the same process for our butterflies you just have to be super careful because sometimes they do break on me too so just gently pull away from all of the sides just like that and it's going to be easy for it to come right out and they're so cute and this one was a perfect example of what can happen um some of them can actually break on you and that's totally okay you can actually re-melt this if you actually want it in the same cup and you know reuse this so let's start off with decorating your strawberries now right here i have cut a small tip on my chocolate so from here we're just going to do a simple drizzle so i'm gonna hold it like this and you're gonna apply pressure to your piping bag and you never want it to stop so now from here we're going to add some sprinkles on the right hand side so we're gonna want our first two berries to look like this i'm gonna do the same to one more of these so now to the next chocolate strawberry we're going to do the same drizzle and i'll show you guys what to do next now we're going to add an amount of chocolate right here in the center we're going to add our hershey's bar and before this sets we're going to add a little bit of sprinkles now now next up to our pink and white berries we're going to cover them both in the sterling pearl this one is called fairy i'm going to add a little bit to my wax paper right here we're just going to grab a fluffy brush just like this we're going to add some sterling pearl and we're just going to go ahead and swirl this onto our strawberry so just grab it from the stems and just go ahead and swirl it on there and it's going to leave us with this really beautiful shiny effect i'll go ahead and show you guys on camera that is such a beautiful sheen i'm gonna go ahead and do this to the rest of them and we'll be right back now we're gonna grab one of our pink strawberries and we're gonna add a little bit of chocolate right here in the center then we're gonna bring over our butterfly and just position it right here in the center and just hold it there for a couple seconds and it should look like this i'm gonna do the same to one more and now to these ones right here i'm gonna add small little butterflies and probably like a pearl on the right hand side i'll add one of these medium-sized ones and then i'll add a small one and i'm going to add a pearl right here holidays now lastly to our white berries i want to add some pearls right here on the right hand side and to the last berry i'm going to do a simple drizzle and add a little bit of these little hearts now we're almost done decorating our strawberries the last touch is to add this diamond dust this one is called strawberry i'm going to add a little bit to this to my wax paper and i'm just going to grab a small little fluffy brush just pack on a little bit and i'm just gonna lightly put some on these chocolate strawberries this is totally optional you do not have to do this but i just love the sparkle that it adds so it ends up looking like this okay so now we're on to packaging and this long box right here i'll go ahead and insert all the details in the product description so please definitely check that out and these little cupcake liners are going to be like the mini ones these are perfect for all strawberries i actually prefer these over the larger ones and these are here from the brand wilton i'll go ahead and leave them down below for you guys as well and i'm just going to add these to all of these little cupcake liners so so from here i'm going to show you guys this paper shirt i'm using today this one is from the brand spritz and i got this one from target so let's see how much paper shred we need so i'm just going to go ahead and add that in there so that looks pretty full i didn't end up using all of it so we could just save this for next time now next up we have our roses i'm actually just gonna go ahead and take off like these extra little pieces of leaves i'm just gonna take those off actually because i don't really like how it looks like with the leaves and we're just going to peel those off now just be really careful because some of these do end up having like a little bit of thorns and i'm just going to place it right over the box and just see like where i have to cut so i want to make it all the way towards the bottom right here so i'm just going to cut it just a little bit above and i'm just going to use like regular kitchen scissors so just make sure these are nice and dry i did have these in a base filled with water and we're just going to line them up let me just go ahead and cut the rest of my roses and we'll be right back foreign so from here we're gonna start placing them inside so we're just gonna place them just like that and if you have some that are like not nice like rose petals you can just easily take those off as well [Music] so i'm just going to line them up like this [Music] so on the top i'm going to try to add four roses and now from here i'm going to add three roses so let's measure again and then we'll cut [Music] so now we're just gonna do the same thing and place it right below that other one so now that we have our seven roses in there it's nice and perfect we're gonna add in our stella rose they carry these in like different flavors but i chose today the stella pink because it matches our colors so we're just gonna place this one right here in the center so we're gonna start off with our chocolate ones at the top so i'm gonna put them in there going slanted and the next one i'll go ahead and do this one with the butterfly and we're just going to keep alternating them [Music] [Music] so [Music] do but we are going to use these chocolate cookies so i'm just going to place a couple right here at the top i'm gonna add about three or so yeah so i was able to fit three up here which is perfect and i'll go ahead and show you guys something else that i want to add to this so i have this sweet sugar bell edible dust i found this one at michael's i'm just going to add a little bit to my roses up here just so that we can give it like this really cute shine just going to add a little bit to it so we're almost done with our strawberry box i just want to make it a little bit more personal and add in this cute little custom card and i'm going to add my sticker to this so i'm just going to put the happy valentine's day right here in the corner and you can actually like just put this one here or you can put it like outside of the box totally optional but i'm actually gonna place it in here so i'm just gonna place this one right here at the top you can place it anywhere in the box but um i think the top is fine and we're just gonna close this up [Music] and yeah we're all done with this box i love how it turned out whoever receives this is just gonna love everything in it because everything
