Match similarly sized strawberries

Step 2 - Place around the chocolate disk using 5 strawberry halves per demogorgon head. Repeat with the remaining strawberries (you may need to remelt the chocolate during this process). Spoon some chocolate in the centre. Place in the fridge to set completely.

Pipe white chocolate "teeth"

Step 3 - Make a small parchment piping bag and melt the white chocolate (use a 75% heat if using microwave). Spoon into the piping bag and draw "teeth" around the centre and on the outside of the strawberry petals (if the chocolate gets too firm, microwave for 8 seconds or so). Refrigerate until set. Store in fridge.
