White Cake Truffles

What do you do with left over sponge cake? After making Macey's castle cake I had lots of sponge cake left over and so I wrapped it and put it in the freezer. At the weekend, I thought I'd be creative and do something with it before it passed the normal one month limit before it started to turn into a lab specimen! I'm sure we've all been there!

First of all while it was still frozen I used a melon baller to scoop out small round balls of sponge and dipped them in dark chocolate while still frozen. They came out like mini jaffa cakes but without the smashing orangey bit in the middle!

With the rest I found a recipe for White Cake Truffles from an Australian book called Crazy for Chocolate. I then double-dipped the truffles in white chocolate - verrrrryy sweet!
