Step 1
Warm orange juice, rum, and sugar in a shallow bowl until sugar dissolves, ~2 minutes. Stir in apricot jam until smooth.
Step 2
Cut sponge cake into 1.5-inch cubes. Dip each cube into the punch syrup for 2 seconds per side until lightly soaked.
Step 3
Roll each syrup-soaked cake cube in sprinkles until the surface is fully coated, then place on a plate.
Step 4
Melt chocolate in a small bowl over simmering water or in short 20-second microwave bursts, stirring between each.
Step 5
Drizzle melted chocolate over the top of each cake cube. Serve immediately or chill until chocolate sets.
