Rainbow Cake Balls
INGREDIENTS:
1 Woolworths white chocolate mud cake
6 tsp vanilla buttercream
Food dye, in rainbow colours
1 × 375g pack of white chocolate melts
Baking tray
Baking paper
Sprinkles, to decorate
DIRECTIONS:
Peel the icing off your Woolies mud cake and slice into 6 even pieces.
Put each section of cake in a separate bowl and crumble finely. Add 1 tsp of vanilla buttercream to each bowl, and stir to combine. Tint each bowl of cake mixture a different rainbow colour.
Pinch off small pieces of each colour and roll into small rainbow balls. Next, place the balls in the freezer for 15 minutes to set. Whilst they're setting, melt white chocolate with a few drops of red food colouring in the microwave in 30 second bursts.
Line a baking tray with baking paper. Take the cake balls out of the freezer and dip into the white chocolate using a fork. Place on the baking paper, and top with sprinkles. Store in the fridge.

Rainbow White Chocolate Crackles
INGREDIENTS:
A loaf tin (preferably silicone)
Cooking spray
3 cups Rice Bubbles
300g white chocolate
90g butter
30 marshmallows
Food dye, in rainbow colours
DIRECTIONS:
Spray your loaf tin with cooking spray. If using a non-silicone loaf tin, line with baking paper. Next, divide all ingredients except the rice bubbles into 6 separate, microwave-safe bowls, i.e. 50g of white chocolate, 15g butter, and 5 marshmallows in each bowl.
Melt one bowl of ingredients in the microwave in 30 second bursts. Stir until smooth, then tint with blue food dye, and stir in 1/2 a cup of rice bubbles. Press into an even layer in your tin, then place in the freezer while you melt the next layer. Repeat, working your way up to pink, then set in the fridge for at least 2 hours.
Slice into pieces to serve.
