cap off
End with flourish
Cap off means to finish or complete something, often by adding a final element that serves as a culmination: We capped off the evening with champagne, A promotion capped off her successful year.
The image is of placing a cap or lid on something—sealing it as finished.
The phrase suggests a satisfying or appropriate conclusion rather than merely stopping.
