Melt the dipping chocolate in a small bowl in the microwave according to the package instructions. Different brands melt faster than others. My personal preference is Wilton candy melts.

Once the chocolate is completely melted, dip your fresh strawberries in the chocolate about 3/4 of the way up the berry.

The chocolate hardens pretty quickly, once you pull the berry out of the melted candy, dip the bottom in blue sugar sprinkles about 1/3 of the way up.
