What are some easy, tasty cake decorations?

I just made a very dark, rich chocolate cake, with a glazed chocolate frosting, which I used to top the entire cake, but I want to decorate it with something pretty like tiny sugar pansies or something. But I dont get anything of that sort in the stores around me, so does anyone have any ideas?
pattie j: thats an idea, but they dont look pretty. They look very pretty on cupcakes, though..

Dip strawberries in melted white chocolate and just prior to serving the cake put them on top and around the bottom of the plate. Strawberries taste great with chocolate cake and the white chocolate is a nice contrast to the dark chocolate. Another idea is to put white and milk chocolate curls on top of the cake. Basically you just leave bakers chocolate squares out until room temperature and then use a potato peeler to make curls.
