(The trick to make the whipped cream last a long time: beat 1c Cream until soft peaks form, then add 1/4c. Sour Cream, and finish beating. I popped the cake in the fridge for 1-1.5 hours before serving, and it looked great....They say it would last/look good even longer if you popped the cake in the freezer for 30m to 1h (to set it)....)
