Method
- Pat the strawberries completely dry and thread 3 to 4 onto each skewer.

- Heat gently until dissolved, then boil until the caramel turns golden.
- Remove from the heat and carefully dip or drizzle the strawberry skewers with caramel.
- Place on baking paper and leave to set for 10 minutes.
- Sprinkle with pistachios or biscuit crumb if using.

Notes
Caramel gets extremely hot, so this is one for adults to prepare. Make sure the strawberries are dry before dipping or the caramel will not cling properly.
