How to decorate Birthday cake without Fresh cream?

Hi ,

I mistakenly bought Multi Purpose Whipping Cream , i need to decorate a Birthday Cake for my husband , i have a whipped cream and cooking chocolates and cherry . How do i decorate using all this . Pls advice

Cover the cake with whipped cream, smoothing it nicely on the top and around the sides of the cake. (Keep some of the cream aside for decorating)

Put the rest of the cream in an icing bag and make twirls around the top edge of the cake. If you have a lot of cherries, you can make the cream swirls next to each other, creating a ring of swirls. Otherwise, count how many cherries you have, and make enough swirls, spaced evenly. Gently press one cherry on top of each swirl.

Next, grate the chocolate using a cheese grater (the bigger the shavings, the better), and sprinkle them in the center of the cake.

I found a picture of a "Black Forrest Cake" recipe that will give you an idea how the decorating will look.

Birthday Cake

In classical Roman culture flat cakes made with Flour, yeast, nuts and sweetened with honey were served at special birthdays for high society and royalty. During the 17th Century, these cakes became more elaborate, consisting of layers of cream and icing, becoming closer to the birthday cake as it is today.
Variations on the birthday cake differ according to culture; in China a sweetened bun is served to every guest as part of the celebration and in Korea seaweed soup is the traditional birthday dish. Swedish birthday cakes are made of marzipan and decorated with a picture of the national flag. In Britain and America, we are spoilt for choice with our range of birthday cake ideas and birthday cake designs. Deciding on one depends on the type of party and the individual.

Chocolate birthday cake recipes are popular for their rich flavour and be decorated according to taste. When choosing your birthday cake recipe it is best to tailor it to the personality of the individual; birthday cake recipes for adults may be more of a culinary treat whereas children love spectacular themed cakes. Children's birthday cake ideas are a great opportunity to get creative as the cakes can be tailored to whatever your child has in mind.

Ideas for the perfect home-made birthday cake can come in the form of animal cakes, sports cakes, themed birthday cakes and cakes for a formal occasion. Princess cakes and fairy-castle cakes are a popular choice with young girls whilst football-themed cakes are greatly appreciated by boys. For a formal and elaborate birthday cake, the design could be based on that of the Wedding Cake, comprised of several tiers with thick decorative icing.
