I second trifle - I have made many cake trifles and they're delicious! Sometimes I just freeze the scraps and if I feel like a lazy dessert heat up a couple of pieces in the microwave and top with ice-cream.
You can also make truffle-type balls by adding either icing or cream cheese - so long as you have something tasty that squishes it all together they'll taste good.

use as a base for cheesecake, just add a bit of booze to moisten then press into cheesecake base. make a baileys cheesecake and then you have a nice compliment to the chocolate.

I've got a nice truffle recipe somewhere using choc cake crumbs. Can hunt it out if you're interested.

Chocolate cake would make a good Black Forest trifle (posted previously)...jam, cherries, chocolate mousse, whipped cream...
Will see if I can find the thread.

if you freeze it, you can cut it up when you have a chocolate fondue!! mini truffles in champagne glasses and rum balls sounds very good as well.

I do like kiwitrish. I crumble up all my offcuts and mix them together with left over buttercream or ganache icing. Roll them into truffle sized balls, refrigerate then dip in chocolate. HTH
