Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Melt white candy wafers per package instructions. Dip each strawberry, twist slightly, let excess drip off, and place on parchment. Let set for 10 minutes.
Melt red wafers and dip strawberries, covering 90% of the white. Let set for 10 minutes or until the candy coating has set.
Melt yellow wafers and dip, covering 75% of the red. Let set for 10 minutes or until the candy coating has set.
Melt green wafers and dip, covering 75% of the yellow. Let set for 10 minutes or until the candy coating has set.
Melt blue wafers and dip, covering 75% of the green. Let set for 10 minutes or until the candy coating has set.
Melt purple wafers and dip, covering 75% of the blue. Let set for 30 minutes or until the candy coating has set.

🍓 Storage Tips:

Refrigeration: Store in a single layer on a parchment-lined plate or airtight container in the fridge.
Avoid Moisture: Place a paper towel under the strawberries to absorb excess moisture and prevent sweating.
No Stacking: To keep the candy coating intact, avoid stacking the strawberries.

🕒 Shelf Life:

Best Enjoyed Fresh: Within 24 hours for the best texture and flavor.
Refrigerated: Up to 48 hours, though condensation may affect the candy coating.
Not Freezer-Friendly: Freezing causes the chocolate to crack and the strawberries to become mushy when thawed.

For the best experience, serve them fresh and enjoy their sweet, crunchy coating before they soften! 🌈✨
