Trim off the sharp top edges to round the top, then coat the cake with a thin layer of the remaining icing
• Pipe dots of meringue all over the cake so it looks like a pineapple. Brown the meringue with a blowtorch or put it in an oven, turned up as high as it will go, and keep an eye on it until it starts to brown. Cool completely.
