Yesterday we tried strawberry chocolate balls. They looked amazing, I wanted to eat it straight away. They were rock solid and very hard. They smelt like candy canes. They looked like little snow balls and they tasted like they had jelly inside. - Theo     Yesterday I ate strawberry chocolate balls and they looked like a little pink egg. They felt sticky, breakable and hard. They smelt like marshmallows and strawberries. Thank you for letting us have a strawberry chocolate ball. They tasted like a piece of gum. - Tyson R The strawberry ball looks like a strawberry play ball. It felt like hard wood and smelt like strawberry sunflowers. They tasted like bubble gum. - Marinelle
