Looks mighty tasty! #1443770

Debbie E. Payne February 16, 2012

They taste especially good with a bit of port. #9986472

Teresa H. Hunt February 16, 2012

Oh my goodness they look so good!!! #9986503

Debbie E. Payne February 16, 2012

Here is a slightly different view - it is more skewed and not so "straight". #9986545

Jeff E Jensen February 17, 2012

I like the second image, though if you have room, I'd re-crop so that the berry in the bottom right corner isn't clipped. #9987134

Carla Capra Anderson February 17, 2012

I like the 2nd, too. yummo!
looks a bit dark in the upper right portion.
Great images. #9987138

Debbie E. Payne February 17, 2012

Sorry, but I took these with my small macro and that was all the room I had so I can't do anything in the way of cropping.. I might look at that darker corner in a bit. Thanks for noticing that, Carla. #9987397

Well, I guess Martin is just going to have to get you more. . . #9987460

Debbie E. Payne February 17, 2012

More port, too! #9987489

I've never seen strawberries decorated like that. They look good enough to eat!! #9988279

Sue C. Cole February 17, 2012

Yummmmm! #9988286

Rita K. Connell level-classic February 18, 2012

I will take the one with all the choc please! #9988832

Aimee C. Eisaman February 18, 2012

I really like the first view...very pretty light. They sure do look good...never had any chocolate covered strawberries, but I like chocolate and strawberries so I guess I should try it sometime. Are there any left??? :~) #9989192

Debbie E. Payne February 18, 2012

Yes - we've been saving two a night and so we have two more days left. #9989292

exquisite! #9989556

Joan E. Hoffman February 18, 2012

Both of these are beautifully delicious!! Think prefer the second, as I feel I can reach in and pick one up.

Had to laugh at your Port comment. Last time I had some (apparently too much) we were playing Trivial pursuit... me against the room (5 others).... apparently I "fainted" somewhere along the line, and woke up in the morning to find a not taped on the fridge stating.... WE BEAT THE ENCYCLOPEDIA JOANICA at trivial pursuit.... November whatever 1998!!!! Off my list of beverages ever since LOL! #9989561

joan you are to funny...I think I would have taken it off my list. last time I enjoyed alchol was 30 plus years ago a story I would rather left untold...a small group of friends thought it was pretty funny but I made up my mind that was never going to happen again. #9989841

Aimee C. Eisaman February 19, 2012

That's funny Joan! #9990427

Beth Spencer February 19, 2012

i am not sure these would last long enough around here to get a picture of them. I bet they even taste better than they look. #9991209

Aimee C. Eisaman February 20, 2012

I'm with you Beth....I don't have the will power that they do esp. when it comes to chocolate!

mmmmmmm. chocolate. mmmmmm, strawberries. Chocolate covered strawberries...out of this world. On that note I have to say I prefer the original version, because I like the symmetry of the triangles created by the white chocolate and dark chocolate. The peanut covered ones give my eye a chance to pause and then I take them in all over again...wishing I could have just one to eat! #9992267

Debbie E. Payne February 21, 2012

Thank you all....They are all gone now. Martin even threw away the box which I had intended on keeping for make-up. Oh well. They were good through out almost the entire week. #9994427
