First of all, strawberries shouldn't be used in any cakes as they exude too much moisture and the cake will be soggy!. To make chocolate covered strawberries: leave the stem on berry - fill a pot about 1/2 full, and bring to light boil, put a bowl on top - melt 1 package of chocolate chips with 1 cup of heavy cream- this is called a ganache-
dip berries in and then lay them unto a cookie sheet covered with parchment paper and refrigerate until solid!. If you want to make a cake for Strawberry shortcake - use any cake mix according to directions and for filling use whipped cream with sliced berries!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Make a ganache, which is a ratio of 2:1 of chocolate and 1/2 and 1/2 in favor of chocolate!. So to make 3 ounces, you would need 2 oz!. of chocolate, and 1 oz, of 1/2 and 1/2!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
