[/CENTER]For filling
To make your cake more mouth watering you must focus on filling. You can use any filling of your choice. I would recommend you the following for filling:
Canned peaches ½ can
Sugar syrup ½ cup
Glazed cherries 15 (for filling and decoration)
You will also require cream. I would suggest you to use tetra pack cream one and half packet at least and it must be chilled. And the most important thing to keep in mind is that you have to use icing sugar in the preparation of cake instead of regular sugar.
