Toffee fruit
Method
Toffee fruit
1.Insert small cocktail skewer (lengthwise) into the hull of each strawberry. Line 2 baking trays with baking paper.
2.Combine sugar and 1/3 cup water in a medium saucepan over low heat. Cook and stir for 3 minutes or until sugar dissolves. Increase heat to high. Bring to the boil. Boil, without stirring, for 8 minutes or until mixture turns rich golden brown. Remove from heat. Set toffee aside for 30 seconds for bubbles to subside.
3.Carefully dip strawberries, one by one, into toffee to coat, letting excess drip off. Place on one of the prepared trays.
4.Holding stem, carefully dip each pear two-thirds deep into toffee, letting excess drip off. Place on remaining prepared tray. Stand at room temperature for 15 minutes or until toffee is set. Dip base of each pear into chocolate; place on tray. Stand for 20 minutes to set. Serve.
To melt chocolate, place in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave on High (100%) in 30-second bursts until melted and smooth. Don’t overheat chocolate, as it will seize; if this happens, discard and start again.
