Can I use vegan chocolate?

Absolutely! Just make sure it's good quality - some vegan chocolates don't melt as smoothly. I love the dark chocolate from [popular vegan brand] - it works like a charm.

How long does it last?

Honestly? About 5 minutes once people see it! But seriously, it's best eaten the same day. The fruit gets soggy if stored overnight, though the chocolate-covered nuts and cookies keep for 2-3 days in the fridge.

What if my chocolate seizes up?

Don't panic! Add a tiny bit of coconut oil (about 1/2 tsp per 100g chocolate) and stir gently. It should smooth right out. Learned this trick after many chocolate disasters!

Can I make this ahead?

Sort of! Prep your toppings and melt the chocolate right before serving. The magic is in that fresh, glossy drizzle - nobody wants hardened chocolate art!
