Ingredients

  • 400 grams Vanilla cake (baked and cooled)
  • 150 grams Cream cheese frosting
  • 300 grams White chocolate (for coating)
  • 3 drops each Gel food coloring (pink, blue, and purple)
  • 50 grams Edible glitter or sprinkles

Directions

Step 1

Crumble the cooled vanilla cake into fine crumbs in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Add the cream cheese frosting to the cake crumbs and mix thoroughly until the mixture achieves a dough-like consistency.

Step 3

Divide the cake mixture into three equal parts. Add a drop of pink food coloring to one part, blue to another, and purple to the last part. Mix each portion until the color is evenly distributed.

Step 4

Take a small amount of each colored mixture and gently combine them into a marble-like effect. Roll into 1-inch balls. Repeat with the remaining mixture.

Step 5

Place the cake balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and freeze for 15 minutes to firm up.

Step 6

Meanwhile, melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over a saucepan of simmering water, or microwave in 30-second intervals until smooth.

Step 7

Dip each chilled truffle into the melted white chocolate, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing it back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.

Step 8

Quickly decorate the coated truffles with edible glitter or sprinkles while the chocolate is still wet.

Step 9

Allow the truffles to set completely at room temperature, or refrigerate for faster setting.

Step 10

Serve and enjoy your magical Unicorn Cake Truffles!
