• Or: cool glazed berries on a plate or cookie sheet, then roll in coconut, or chocolate, or both.

HOW TO MAKE GLAZED STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• Rinse 16 strawberries and dry them with a paper towel. You can leave the stems on the strawberries or trim them off if you prefer. Ensure that the strawberries are completely dry since the sugar glaze won't stick to wet berries. Avoid using frozen strawberries for this recipe. They'll release too much moisture as they thaw and they'll become mushy.
• Insert a toothpick into the stem or big end of each strawberry. Push the toothpick about 1 inch (2.5 cm) deep into the strawberry. This will make it easier to dip the strawberries into the hot glaze. If you don't have toothpicks, you can use lollipop sticks or bamboo skewers.
• Put the sugar and water into a saucepan with a candy thermometer. Pour 1 cup (200 g) of granulated sugar along with 1⁄4 cup (59 ml) of water into a saucepan and clip a candy thermometer to the side of the saucepan. The tip of the candy thermometer should be near the bottom of the pan without touching it.Variation: To make red-glazed strawberries that have a cinnamon flavor, reduce the amount of sugar to 3/4 cup (150 g) and add 1/2 cup (112 g) of crushed cinnamon red hots along with the water. You can also substitute caster or superfine sugar for the granulated sugar.
• Heat the sugar syrup until it reaches 300 °F (149 °C). Stir the sugar so it mixes with the water and turn the burner to medium-high. Stir the mixture frequently as it liquifies and heats up to 300 °F (149 °C). Stir gently to prevent the hot syrup from splashing out of the saucepan. 300 °F (149 °C) on the candy thermometer is also called hard crack stage. If you don't have a thermometer, spoon a little syrup into a bowl of cold water. The syrup should break and crack if it's hot enough.
• Turn off the burner and dip the strawberries into the syrup. Carefully hold a strawberry by the toothpick and lower it into the hot syrup. Dip it down until all but the stem is glazed. Then place it on a sheet of parchment paper. Repeat this with the rest of the strawberries. Work quickly so the syrup doesn't have a chance to cool too much. The hot syrup can burn your skin, so use caution when you dip the berries.
• Let the strawberries harden and serve them within 2 hours. Leave the strawberries alone for a few minutes so they harden completely. For the best texture, serve the glazed strawberries within 2 hours. You can set them out for guests to pick up or place them on top of decorated cakes and tarts. The berries will begin to shrink under the glaze and they'll become too ripe after a few hours. This is why you should avoid making the glazed strawberries too far in advance.

STRAWBERRY CINNAMON ROLLS

Steps:

• Combine water, sugar, and yeast in the bowl of a stand mixer. Allow yeast to bloom until foamy, about 10 minutes.
• Gradually add flour to the yeast mixture. Heat butter in a small microwave-safe bowl until melted; add to the flour mixture. Add egg and salt. Mix until a soft, sticky dough forms. Transfer dough to the counter and cover with plastic wrap. Let rest until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
• Roll dough out to a 9x16-inch rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Spread butter on top. Mix brown sugar and cinnamon together in a small bowl; sprinkle over butter. Roll up dough tightly. Cut into 12 pieces.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
• Place rolls in the baking dish. Gently cover with a piece of foil. Allow rolls to rise in a warm area, about 25 minutes.
• Uncover rolls and bake in the preheated oven until centers are lightly golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes.
• While rolls are cooling slightly, prepare the glaze. Combine powdered sugar, strawberry puree, vanilla extract, and salt; beat by hand or with an electric mixer until smooth. Spread over the tops of the rolls.

GLAZED STRAWBERRIES

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Prepare a baking sheet by lining it with aluminium foil and spraying the foil with nonstick cooking spray.
• Wash the strawberries and dry them carefully.
• Prepare an ice bath by placing ice and cold water in a bowl large enough to hold your intended saucepan.
• Combine the sugar, water, and corn syrup in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Insert a candy thermometer.
• Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
• Continue to cook, without stirring, until the temperature reaches 300 F on the candy thermometer.
• During this process, which can take from 10 to 20 minutes, wipe down the sides of the saucepan occasionally with a wet pastry brush to prevent crystallization.
• Once the candy has reached 300 F, remove the pan from the heat immediately and immerse the bottom in the prepared ice bath to stop it from cooking any further. Do not let the ice water get into the pot.
• Once the candy has stopped cooking (look for the bubbles to stop rising from the bottom of the pan), remove the pan from the ice water. Now you can begin to dip your berries. Holding a strawberry by the stem, dip it until it is almost submerged in the candy. Be careful not to touch the liquid candy, as it is very hot and can cause painful burns.
• Remove the berry from the candy and allow the excess to drip off the end.
• Turn it a few times to ensure excess candy has dripped off, then place it on the prepared, oiled baking sheet.
• Quickly repeat with remaining berries until they are all coated in candy.
• Allow the candy to set at room temperature.
• Serve immediately and enjoy!
