Place the bowl on top of the saucepan with water, reduce the heat to low and simmer, stir with a metal spoon until the chocolate has melted. Turn off the heat.
• Making the truffle mixtureEmpty the can of caramel sauce into the cake crumbs and then pour and scrape in all the melted chocolate, mixing well. Cool to room temperature, tightly cover with plastic food wrap, refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight.
