"Chocolate-covered" refers to food items that are coated in a layer of chocolate. This process typically involves dipping the item into melted chocolate or drizzling chocolate over it. Common examples include fruits like strawberries and bananas, as well as snacks like pretzels and nuts. The chocolate adds sweetness and richness, enhancing the flavor of the covered item. The chocolate used can vary in type, including milk chocolate, dark chocolate, and white chocolate. Each type offers a different taste and texture, allowing for a variety of combinations. Chocolate-covered treats are popular for desserts, gifts, and special occasions.
