To cut the cake to heart shape is easy.
Print in a paper heart shape of your desired size.
Cut it to that shape. Place it on the cake and run the knife around it to make heart shape.

I am using cream cheese frosting. I am not piping it and it worked great for me.

Recipe for Cream cheese frosting :
Ingredients :
Cream cheese - 8 oz
Mascorpone cheese - 8 oz
Heavy whipping cream - 1.5 cup
Vanilla extract - 1 tsp
Confectionary sugar - 1 cup

Method :
1. Put cream cheese and Mascorpone cheese in room temperature.
2. Beat cream cheese until creamy.
3. Add Mascorpone cheese and beat until creamy.
4. Add vanilla extract and confectionary sugar and beat nicely.
5. Add heavy whipping cream and beat well until required consistency is obtained.

Creamy frosting is ready. If you want to pipe it beat it really well.

Cut the cake into layers. Frost in between and add each layer.
Frost all over. It needed not be perfect as we are going to add crumbled cake on top.

Crumble the left out cake piece. Have soft crumble.

Spread it all over the cake to get a bright red attractive decoration.
Be sure to spread the cake when the cream is fresh so that the cake crumble sticks to it.
For the sides, you can take some and press it gently.
Clean the leftover cake crumble.

Beautiful valentines cake is ready.

Enjoy the joy of cooking.

Note :
Put a wax paper in the bottom of the pan. I found it difficult to take the cake out as the cake was too soft.
