Help...decorating birthday cake for DF

As far as the cake goes, you can't go wrong with this one. It's the nicest, moistest recipe in my collection and I've never messed it up. Makes a huge cake - halve it if you want.

Chocolate cake
 
2 cups sugar
3 cups self-raising flour
2 tsp baking soda
½ cup cocoa
3 eggs, separated
2 cups milk
2 tblsp vinegar
2 tblsp golden syrup
2 tsp vanilla
1 ½ cups oil
                                              
Beat egg whites until peaked.
 
Mix all other wet ingredients together.
 
Sift dry ingredients, and fold into wet ingredients.
 
Fold in egg whites thoroughly
 
Bake at 180 until done (about 40 mins?).


ETA: it does have milk in it tho, sorry

This is how I decorated my DHs birthday cake recently....

I just used fonant icing that you can buy at the supermarket. Really easy!
