28 Cheerios, all same colour, or mixed colours
50 raisins, approx 10g
1 strawberry, sliced in half

1) Break the white chocolate into small pieces, and microwave on medium in 20 seconds blasts, stirring every time until melted, but not hot.
2) Mix the cereal with the chocolate and stir well to coat the cereal flakes,
3) Chill for 20 minutes, until set, then take the two halves out of the mould
4) Break the 30g of white chocolate into small pieces, and microwave on medium in 20 seconds blasts, stirring every time, until melted but not hot. Pour into the piping bag.
5) Pipe chocolate onto the back of 1 half of the ball and join the 2 halves together. (This should set in a minute as the ball will be fairly cold)
Using the chocolate in the piping bag decorate the ball with the Cheerios, and write RUBGY by piping a small dot of chocolate and pushing on a raisins to form the each letter. Finally pipe a large dot of the chocolate and press on the strawberry. Serve.
