I made this for a birthday celebration for my son and his girlfriend. It came out fabulous. I took another reviewer's suggestion about the stabilized whipped cream and it held its shape nicely. I didn't used the cake crumbs for the side (made 4 layers), but instead used bittersweet chocolate shavings. It worked out very nicely. I also put a 1/4 cup kirschwasser in the cherry mixture after it had cooled a bit. This tasted very authentic to us and was a big hit.
