🧂 Ingredients

2 C White Sugar

You can use raw sugar too, but coating will be extra golden
1/2 C Water
20 Strawberries

Instructions

1 Clean the strawberries and pat dry. Remove the stems and skewer them if you
want, or leave as is and coat one at a time.
2 Combine sugar and water in a saucepan, on low heat, melt all the sugar and turn
the heat up to medium.
3 As the color of the syrup starts to turn yellow; or use a thermometer, when the
syrup reaches 300F(150C), the syrup is ready. Immediately turn the heat down to
low to keep the temperature.
4 Coat the strawberries with the syrup and place them on a piece of parchment
paper. Moving as fast as you can so the syrup doesn't overheat and turn into
caramel nor burn the fruit.
5 Let cool and enjoy! These can also be made ahead of time and keep in the fridge
until ready to serve.
6 Using the leftover syrup, keep it on the stove until it turns into a light
brown, caramel color. Add 1/4C Boiling water to the saucepan and stir. Be
careful as the sauce will splatter. Remove the sauce from heat and store in a
jar.
