It's supposed to be chocolate cake with chocolate ganache, the cake is barely an inch thick and the ganache is everywhere but there is increasingly less of it on the cake!
Can I style is out by chucking strawberries and cream on top? Pretend a ganache plate is a 'thing'?
This is why I swore never to inflict another homemade birthday cake upon the DC.
It looks like a cow's turd Sad

Booze is your friend.

Whatever you have bought for the party already, go out and double that. Serve liberally.

Cut it in half, so two semi circles.Sandwich together using the ganache, stand on a plate flat side down, cover with more ganache or icing. Smarties or m&ms, stripes in the colours and have a rainbow cake.this

That is genius!

I have been known to freeze a collapsing cake so that it can be transferred and tidied up without adding to the chaos. Whipped cream can then cover a multitude of cakey-sins.

I'd make it into a trifle personally...

However to try and save it, I'd put frosting on it and then make it a sweetie empire.
