• Now after your cake has cooled cut it into halves using a sharp big knife now you will get two equal round cakes not semi round!
• Now whip the cream nicely till stiff peaks.
• Next sprinkle some sugar syrup in both the cakes and then add nice scoopful of whipped cream and layer it nicely over the cake.
