Spread the remaining cream on top and smooth the sides. 10. Arrange the remaining strawberries, kiwi slices, and mixed berries decoratively on the cream. 11. Sprinkle crushed pistachios around the top edges. 12. Use edible gel or melted white chocolate to carefully write 'Happy Mother's Day' on the cake surface. 13.
