- 36 pieces NILLA Wafers
- 1/2 cup Orange Juice (substitutable with lemon juice)

- Prepare the Wafer Layers: Lay out 24 NILLA Wafers on a work surface. Brush flat sides with orange juice, spread raspberry jam on half of them.
- Stack the Wafer Layers: Stack remaining NILLA Wafers rounded sides up. Place jam-topped wafers on top, refrigerate for 6 hours or overnight.
- Melt the Coating: Melt vanilla candy wafers in a microwave-safe bowl until smooth, stirring frequently. Mix in vegetable oil.
- Coat the Cake Bites: Dip each stacked wafer in the melted candy mixture, let excess drip off, then decorate with toppings.
- Chill Until Firm: Refrigerate the coated bites for 30 minutes to firm up the coating.
