Dessert “Chips & Salsa” is the playful viral twist on a classic snack: chocolate chips as “chips” and macerated fruit (often strawberries) as the “salsa.” This sweet version has been trending on TikTok for turning a savory concept into a dessert delight.
It’s fun, creative, and ridiculously easy—just melt and freeze chocolate slices, chop fruit, and dip. It works at parties, date nights or as a shareable moment on social media. Because presentation matters, it’s ideal for gorgeous layouts, styled bowls, and vibrant colors.
