Shari’s Berries Review & Giveaway

I seriously love chocolate covered strawberries. I’ve even thought about requesting them instead of cake for my birthday because they just seem like such an ultimate treat. Until discovering Shari’s Berries, I never would have realized you could get online chocolate dipped strawberries to send across the country.

Shari’s Berries takes chocolate dipped strawberries to the next level. Check out some of their offerings:

I got the chance to review some of their strawberries for myself, and I chose to try the Full Dozen Hand Picked Fancy Berries.

They arrived in a nice box, packed with in a large insulated box that included a big ice pack. This kept them nice and cool – and amazingly fresh.

Don’t they look good? There was a mix of dark, milk, and white chocolate. We had family and friends in town, so they helped me sample – and I also got some of my coworkers to sample too. The berries were a resounding hit! Everyone commented on how good they looked.

The berries were fresh and juicy. Some of the juice had leaked out, but the berries rest on padded wrappers that absorbed the moisture so there was no mess. We all really enjoyed them, and I realized this is a great treat for a large group as well as for an individual person you might send them to. Everyone enjoyed picking from the different options available.

If you have someone on your list to shop for that seems to have everything, this would be a great gift for them – or if you want to add something extra special, Shari’s Berries also has packages available to send flowers and chocolate covered strawberries together. Check out this option, where the recipient gets flowers one day and strawberries the next – how fun is that? Mother’s Day is right around the corner – you can find great chocolate gifts for Mother’s Day at Shari’s Berries.
