  1. Peel the kiwis and cut into thick wedges.
  2. Fill the plastic disposable piping bag (fitted with a no 5 star nozzle) with the whipped cream.
  3. Make an arch border at the circumference of the cake: to do this,l squeeze the piping bag and allow the cream to come out gently– do not lift the bag.
  4. Gradually relax your pressure as you lower the tip until it touches the surface. Stop pressure and without lifting it off the surface start forming your next arc form and continue to make an even chain.

  6. Add the glycerine and heat till you get a syrup of coating consistency.
  7. Cool the syrup and put the kiwis into it.
  8. Remove the kiwi pieces and place on top of the cake.
  9. Cut into 4 equal wedges and serve.
