Instructions

  1. Drain the cherries well and dry them with a clean cloth.

  2. Roll a little fondant around each cherry.

  3. Melt the chocolate to 120°, then cool to room temperature.

  4. Spread a little melted chocolate on the bottom of each piece of fondant-wrapped cherry.

  5. Place on waxed paper until the chocolate is set.

  6. As soon as the chocolate sets on the bottom of the cherry-fondant ball, dip the whole thing in the melted chocolate (the sugar in the fondant will draw the juice out of the cherry and the juice will melt the fondant).
