IMG_5211A Chocorococo Berry Tower is a fantastic centre piece for any occasion, and looks simply stunning when displayed with delicious hand dipped Belgian chocolate strawberries. A Berry tower also makes a great alternative to a wedding cake if you have vegetarian guests or guests on a gluten free diet.

We all know that strawberries and champagne are a match made in heaven,  so if you have clients to impress or a family celebration , you couldn’t get better tasting canapes than this, now could  you?

All our strawberries come dipped in white / dark or milk belgian chocolate , then dipped in nuts or coconut, but we are happy to cater to individual requirements. IMG_5419

Hand dipped strawberries can also be provided as an alternative wedding  favour with a difference, they look lovely displayed on your tables, and what a treat for your guests when they open the box. Alternatively , we can display them on our tower, with further dipped strawberries, the choice is yours
