For a richer flavor, toast the pecans lightly before grinding. If the mixture is too soft to handle, chill for an additional 30 minutes. Experiment with different colors of decorator's sugar for a variety of festive looks. Store the candy strawberries in an airtight container in the refrigerator to maintain their shape and freshness.
