There are six strawberries per box with either all dark wit white dark Belgian chocolate stripes or a mix of both. Spoil your beloved and friends with the best chocolate dipped strawberries in all of Southern California. If I had to guess, it could even be the whole state, too.
Benefits of Eating Chocolate Berries
If it’s not enough to woo you with how amazing they are in taste, the best news of all is this Valentine’s Day in San Diego Must Have Item is also
healthy for you to eat, too. According to UCI Health, here are the health benefits:
Strawberries are also loaded with vitamin C to boost your valentine’s immune system and offer a very good source of dietary fiber, iodine, folate, potassium and many other minerals.
Chocolate, when eaten in moderation, provides its own set of benefits.
“Cocoa, the key ingredient in chocolate, comes from cacao beans, which are full of polyphenols known as flavonoids, which, among other benefits also:
- Increases one’s good cholesterol (HDL)
- Lowers bad cholesterol (LDL)
- Lowers blood pressure
Dark chocolate is your best option, as milk chocolate is typically quite high in sugar and cream. Bittersweet dark chocolate with a high percentage of cocoa (generally 60 percent to 80 percent) offers the most health benefits without tasting too bitter to enjoy.” -UCI Health
OTHER GOODIES at Paradise right now:
Besides our chocolate covered strawberries, we have local raw honey, unpasteurized kind, from about a mile away from our location in Rancho Santa Fe. As most know, adding local honey to your diet has lots of health benefits, too, especially for allergies, plus according to Healthline, “The antioxidants in honey have been linked to beneficial effects on heart health, including increased blood flow to your heart and a reduced risk of blood clot formation.” Paradise Produce also carries honey from Topanga Quality Honey, which is also divine.
