Strawberries & Chocolate

Just one month ago, my mother-in-law, who lives in Australia, surprised us with an Easter cookie bouquet; she surprised us again yesterday by sending me a Mother’s Day gift – two boxes full of huge fresh strawberries and two jars of fudge dipping sauce!

They were packaged nicely from Cherry Moon Farms.  In each box were 16 strawberries, so 32 strawberries in all, and in each box was one jar of fudge dipping sauce.

And when I said they were huge, I did mean that they were huge!

The fudge dipping sauce is an award-winning gourmet chocolate sauce from Fudge Fatale.  It is a very nice sauce that is not too sweet and goes perfect with the strawberries.  The sauce is spreadable at room temperature and needs a quick zap in the microwave to achieve a dipping consistency.  It would also be nice over ice cream, I imagine!

There are recipes on the Fudge Fatale webiste that are worth checking out as well.  I have two jars of this sauce and will definitely have some leftover, so I hope to try out a couple of those recipes.

This was a very sweet and totally unexpected Mother’s Day gift!  What sweet treats have you received or given for Mother’s Day this year?

  1. I had no idea strawberries could be shipped like that! And they still look so fresh. Mmm…

    I made my mom some candy melt flowers this year. Nothing too fancy, but I’m in the middle of packing and moving. She understands. :)
