Dixie Crystals Insight
Tips: If you want your strawberry hot chocolate to be vibrantly pink (as pictured), use pink candy melts to make your hot cocoa mix. If you use white chocolate to make your hot cocoa mix, your hot chocolate will be very pale pink. If using a white chocolate candy bar, you can grate it using a cheese grater.
