*Create a border by drizzling melted chocolate around the top edges of the cake.
*Sift powdered sugar onto an unfrosted cake. To make a beautiful lacy pattern, place a paper doily on top of the cake. Sprinkle powdered sugar over the top of the entire doily. Carefully remove the doily by lifting straight up. Vary this idea by cutting shapes or names from waxed paper to make a stencil.
*Coat the entire cake or just the top or sides with chopped nuts, colored sugar, sprinkles, miniature chocolate chips or miniature candy-coated chocolate pieces.
*Use a cookie cutter or stencil to mark a design on a frosted cake. Fill in with colored sugar, candy sprinkles or minced nuts.
