Cover the top and sides with white chocolate shavings.
-2 cups White chocolate shavings1Melted white chocolate (Or use colored candy melts. I colored my melted white chocolate with orange oil-based food coloring. )1 cup

For the chocolate loop decor, pour melted chocolate (any color you like) in a squeeze bottle. You can also use a piping bag and make a very small cut for the opening with scissors. Place a sheet of wax paper on a cookie tray. Pipe little loop shapes on wax paper. They don't need to be perfect. Before the chocolate sets, quickly toss sprinkles or colored sugar on top of these loops. Let chocolate set and harden. You can chill in fridge or freezer to speed up this process. Gently peel the loops away from the wax paper and carefully push them on top of your frosted cake. Enjoy!
