Important tips & variations to make chocolate covered grapes: 

  1. Make sure to rinse and dry grapes well completely before dipping them in the chocolate. This would ensure that the chocolate would coat to the grapes well. 

  2. I use green grapes for this recipe, but you can use any grapes of your choice.  

  3. Try using plump, seedless, firm, sweet, and juicy grapes. They taste best here.   

  4. About chocolate, you can use any eating chocolate, even the ones with the nuts and dried fruits. Simply melt it and then coat your grapes with the melted chocolate. 

  5. To make grape kebabs, you can also skewer 4-5 grapes in a large wooden skewer, and then dip them into the chocolate. They are a hit at parties. 

  6. Other than chocolate, you can also choose salted caramel, toffee sauce for dipping grapes.  

  7. For melting chocolate, you can either melt it in the microwave or use a double boiler method.  

  8. I used salted crushed peanuts, toasted coconut, chocolate nibs, and sugar pearls for toppings. But you can use any of your favorite toppings. 

  9. You can add 1 teaspoon of coconut oil or butter to each chocolate while melting. This would give you a firm coating.

  10. For an interesting presentation, you can also dip the small bunch of grapes entirely in chocolate.
