• You should use canned pineapple, because the slices are already nicely cut. If you prefer using fresh pineapple you can cut any shape that you like.
• Pat dry with paper towel canned pineapple, so the chocolate will stick better to the fruit.
• To make it more healthy use healthier ingredients for the toppings like hemp hearts or unsweetened coconut flakes. Also, choose good quality dark chocolate.
• To speed up the process of hardening you can place these rings in refrigerator for 15 minutes.
• If your melted chocolate is very thick, add few drops of coconut oil.
• Add toppings immediately after dipping in chocolate.

What is the best chocolate for dipping? You can use wafers – they melt easily, chocolate chips – which I’ve noticed are thicker than wafers. Both milk, semi-sweet or dark chocolate are good. The most important fact is to use good quality chocolate.
