Cake Truffles

 So...this is another "pre"-post to the big project I've been working on all week.
I still can't reveal pictures of the "main" part of the project because the recipient hasn't received them yet...and let's face it...surprises are always so much fun!

I decided to toss in some cake truffles along with the gift basket I'm working on.
I started out with the idea of just doing cookies in the basket, but I thought it would be fun to throw in some cake truffles as filler too! 

 I don't make "traditional" cake pops or cake truffles like most people do.
A "traditional" cake pop or cake truffle is crumbled cake pieces with frosting stirred in to form a gooey mixture that is then dipped in melted chocolate.

 Many folks enjoy this mixture.  For me personally, it is WAY too sweet and rich.  For that reason, I have always done strictly "cake" in my cake pops and cake truffles.
No frosting mixed in.  It's all up to personal taste. :)

 I've always thought cake truffles were the perfect bite-size snack.
Total portion control.
But let's face it, who can eat just one?

 These were a white confetti cake and then dipped in white chocolate.

Stay tuned for the pictures of the final project!
