This delicious candied fruit treat went viral on TikTok. Here's how to make your own tanghulu strawberries with just a few simple ingredients.

Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 10-12 large fresh strawberries
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ½ cup water
  • Ice cubes

Instructions
 

  • Wash and dry the strawberries, leaving the stems intact. Skewer 2-3 strawberries on each wooden skewer.
  • In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches 300°F on a candy thermometer (hard crack stage).
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Prepare a bowl filled with ice water.
  • Dip each skewered strawberry into the hot sugar mixture, coating it thoroughly. Allow any excess sugar to drip off.
  • Immediately dip the coated strawberries into the ice water bath to cool and harden the sugar coating. Remove and pat dry.
  • Serve the strawberry tangulu skewers chilled and crispy, as a delicious and unique treat. Enjoy!
