Magnificent Black Forest cake

The base of a Black Forest cake is chocolate sponge cake. Cut the cake into two layers through the center and pour over some kirsch syrup to moisten the two parts. Whip together 2 cups very cold liquid cream with 1/4 cup sugar. Spread a layer of whipped cream on one layer of the cake and add a layer of cherries in syrup. Cover with the second layer, then spread with the remaining whipped cream. Decorate the cake with chocolate shavings and fresh cherries.
