  6. Remove and let cool on a wire rack. Place in the refrigerator and chill until firm and cold.
  7. Place the heavy cream and ¼ cup sugar in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form. Add the creme de cassis to the cream and beat in just until combined.
  8. Place the cream in a piping bag fitted with a large star tip and pipe on top of the chilled cakes.
  9. Garnish with 1 cherry each, fresh currants, and chocolate shavings.
