White chocolate dipped strawberry kabobs with blueberries create a fun and festive dessert for the Fourth of July. They are so easy to make and a perfect accent for any table setting. The white chocolate and strawberry flavors meld together to make these decorative dessert kabobs taste like strawberries and cream. This would also be a fun to make with the kids.  I typically don’t like white chocolate, but the Godiva Vanilla Bean White chocolate is delicious! These can also be made in advance which is always a plus when entertaining.

Ingredients

• Strawberries and blueberries
• Good quality white chocolate (I used Godiva White Chocolate Vanilla Bean)
• Barbeque skewers
• Styrofoam Block (to hold the strawberries)

Instructions to Make Patriotic Strawberry Kabobs

1. Wash and dry strawberries and blueberries.
2. Place 3 blueberries and the one strawberry on to the barbeque skewer.
3. Chop small pieces of the white chocolate into a microwave safe bowl.
4. Microwave the chocolate for 30 seconds and stir. Repeat until the chocolate fully is melted but don’t over heat. White chocolate melts very quickly.
5. Dip the end of a strawberry kabob into the chocolate, turning the skewer so the strawberry is coated on all sides.
6. Place the dipped strawberry upright in a glass or in a Styrofoam block as seen here. Repeat with the remaining strawberries.
7. Place the glass in the refrigerator for about an hour so the chocolate will harden.

I covered an empty can with red, white and blue scrapbooking paper and accented it with a  ribbon to make the a decorative holder for the strawberries.
