Boxes of Clementines are always connected to the Holidays for me. Their sweet juicy ripeness is one of the few fresh fruit treats I look forward to every December. I have long love eating them in my lunches or as dessert after a heavy meal. I love the smell of oranges that stays on your hands long after you’ve peeled them.
I wanted to serve clementine wedges to a kids party I was attending this weekend and thought this would be a fun (and easy) way to dress up the clementines and make them a bit more festive. Here are my Chocolate Dipped Clementines:
What you will need:
- a box of clementines, peeled and separated
- a bag of Wilton Candy Melts (White)
- sprinkles of assorted colours
- parchment paper or waxed paper
Instructions:
Melt candy melts in a microwave safe bowl. Coat one half of the clementine in melted chocolate then dip in sprinkles. Lay on waxed paper (or parchment paper) to cool and set. Repeat until all clementine wedges are laying on the paper to cool. Once set, serve.
These look so festive! What a delicious idea for a holiday treat.
Great idea using the clementines!

Pretty and delicious! They’d look great on dessert tray. Thanks for the idea!
These look so pretty!
I love clementines and I love chocolate. Would this be considered healthy candy? ;)
I think so Susan! Seems healthy to me ;)
Thank YOU for this!
I was literally looking for exactly this recipe the other day. I know, it sounds simple enough..But I’m blonde and get easily confused in the kitchen haha!
I cannot wait to serve these at my Christmas party (if I don’t eat them all first) :) Pinning as well!
Enjoy!
