Method

  1. Step 1

    Cook fennel seeds in a frying pan over high heat for 30 secs or until fragrant. Use a mortar and pestle, spice grinder or clean coffee grinder to finely crush.
  2. Step 2

    Crumble the cake into a large bowl. Add fennel, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom and orange juice. Stir until mixture comes together. Roll level tablespoonfuls into balls. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  3. Step 3

    Place white choc buttons in a heatproof bowl over simmering water (make sure the bowl doesn’t touch the water). Stir until smooth. Insert a skewer into each truffle. Dip half the truffles in chocolate and gently tap on the side of the bowl to remove excess chocolate. Stand the skewer upright in a large piece of polystyrene for 5 mins or until just set. Repeat to coat each truffle in a second layer. Set aside for 30 mins or until set. Repeat with dark choc buttons and remaining truffles.
  4. Step 4

    Place the melted extra dark and white chocolate in separate sealable plastic bags. Cut off 1 corner and drizzle over truffles. Set aside for 30 mins or until set. Remove skewers.
