- 1 cup white chocolate, melted Use good-quality melting wafers for a smooth coating.

Dipping
- Dip each grape into the green chocolate, twirling to coat evenly, then let excess chocolate drip back into the bowl.
- Place dipped grapes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, ensuring they don’t touch.
- Sprinkle gold sprinkles on top of each dipped grape while the chocolate is still wet.
- Chill in the refrigerator for 10-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens.
- Serve the dipped grapes on a platter with mini pretzels for decoration.
Notes
Use seedless, firm grapes for the best presentation, and avoid water in your work area to prevent chocolate from seizing.
