3-4 pounds Florida strawberries
1 (8-10 inch) crafting cone
50 wooden toothpicks
1 bunch fresh mint
Aluminum foil
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 slice of Florida carambola, or a star cut out of citrus (for the top of the strawberry tree)
Chocolate or caramel dipping sauce, to taste
Use the aluminum foil to wrap the cone completely. Starting at the bottom of the cone, find a spot to start and insert a toothpick into the cone halfway. Place the strawberry with the green top attached, centered onto the toothpick. Continue this process all the way around and up the cone, using smaller berries towards the top. Attach the star to the top of the strawberry tree using another toothpick. Dust the Florida strawberry lightly with powdered sugar. Serve with chocolate and/or caramel dipping sauce.
