Or broken chocolates with fillings inside.

To decorate a homemade cake, you can also use purchased cakes, cookies, muffins, etc.

Cake decorated with fruits

If you want your homemade birthday cake to look easy and appetizing, use fresh fruits and berries to decorate the cake.

You can also try using canned fruits such as pineapples, peaches, apricots, cherries, etc.

Cut the fruit into neat slices and arrange them on top of the cake. For a touch of sophistication, add a few roses of whipped cream and grated chocolate.

Do-it-yourself surprise birthday cake

In order to surprise the birthday man and his guests, sometimes it is enough to do just a little - to cook unusual cake surprise.

Prepare homemade cake layers, then make a neat cut in the inner layers. Smear the cakes with cream, and fill the resulting cavity with colorful sweets, cookies, dried fruits, and even fortune-telling notes.
