However, to give it a more festive look, you can prepare a chocolate glaze. To do this, mix cocoa, sugar, butter, and sour cream. Place the mixture over heat and bring to a boil. Immediately remove from heat, let it cool slightly, then spread over the top layer of the cake. Now refrigerate the cake for at least 1.5 hours. Before serving, decorate the cake with fruits or nuts.
