My newest social media management client is The Royal Chocolate and let me tell y’all…it has been SO fun photographing their products! Not going to lie, I definitely ate a lot of them too.
They have amazing chocolate dipped everything but their apples were really a game changer for me. I actually bought 7 for Fathers Day gifts because they are THAT good. PS they also ship their goodies 😉 .
I had never had a chocolate dipped apple (or candy apple for that matter) because I was scared of biting into them. Turns out, that is not how you eat them anyway! This was news to me so I thought it would be cool to do a Tasty-like video to show how to cut a chocolate apple!
Below you can see my very sophisticated set up (sarcasm). First, I filmed it all with my DSLR and a white board in front of the brightest window in my house. Excuse the mess, this room is acting as a shed till our new shed is built…
I then uploaded the video to iMovie where I sped it up and added captions. iMovie is also great because it has free music that you can add!
A Tasty-like video! Here is the finished product…
It has done really well on their Facebook page so far and I am pumped.
If you haven’t heard, Facebook is giving higher priority these days to videos. So, if you are a business owner this is something to think about when trying to reach your followers!
I am so excited about the possibilities this video opens my blog to! I am hoping to do a video on my favorite summer cocktail and a few other fun how to’s! Stay tuned!
This is awesome girl! I’ve always wondered how they made these videos look so good

Congrats! The video looks fantastic, girl!
I feel embarrassed to admit I also thought you were supposed to “bite into” chocolate covered apples and avoided them because it seemed like such a mess. I can see why this video is doing so well on your client’s Facebook page, great job!
That’s totally what I would do too! The video looks amazing!!! x
This is GENIUS!! I’ve been wanting to attempt one of those tasty-like videos, I’m going to try your tips!
How fun! I have just watched the video and really enjoyed it! It must have been so much fun to shoot it 🙂

I love this! You did such a great job, I love these videos and it was like I was watching one of theirs!
i love making videos like this! It’s so fun to flex the creative muscles!
Ahh, thank you for this tutorial! I can think of a few ways I could use these on my blog 🙂 And I love that it explains how to cut a caramel apple because they are my favorite! Now I know the trick is cutting them into smaller pieces 😉

How cool! I wish I knew more about creating videos but it’s so intimidating!
The video looks really good! It has been ages since I ate one of those apples!
Such a cute little video! this reminds me of my YouTube days in high school, low key want to get back into it! haha! Also, those treats look so good!

This is so cool! I studied video editing in broadcasting school but it is just not my “thing”- it still confuses me so much! That’s awesome you did this though! I would love to get better at this skill.
