  • Nuts: walnuts, almonds, peanuts, pine nuts, pistachios etc. Just remember to chop nuts into small pieces.
  • Seeds: hemp hearts, sesame, sunflower, flax, chia or poppy seeds.
  • Other: coconut flakes, small white or milk chocolate chips, sprinkles.

Tips to make Chocolate Pineapple Rings

  • 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.

How to cut fresh pineapple? Peel pineapple and slice it. Use a knife or small cutter to remove the core from each ring. You can also use the corer.

Does pineapple and chocolate go together? Yes! It tastes amazing.

What fruit can I dip in chocolate? Basically, you can dip any fruit in chocolate including strawberries, apples or pears etc. Check out Chocolate Fondue recipe with all ideas what to dip 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.
