It is a quick way of livening up your cakes. Ice or frost your cake with your favourite icing recipe, or chocolate ganache. Then, using a potato peeler shave off chocolate curls. The chocolate bar or block will need to be warm - around room temperature is usually fine. Scrape small curls by using the edge of your bar of chocolate. When you have mastered that, you can also make broader curls by scraping the peeler along the broad flat surface of the bar of chocolate.You can use this as a very quick simple tip for cake decorating, and is an equally useful idea for any last-minute decorating of your chocolate mousse, puddings, after dinner desserts and ice cream
