- Everybody cuts a round cake the same way, right? You slice out a v-shaped wedge, the same shape as a slice of pizza or a piece of pie, and you serve it up. Isn't that the way to do it?
Well, maybe not. Lots of people, including chefs and even mathematicians, have devised what they consider to be more efficient ways to cut a cake. Especially if someone only wants a small slice. They even claim your cake will stay fresher with these cutting methods. So what are these magical cake-cutting techniques? Watch and find out how you've been cutting cake wrong your entire life.

What's your favorite kind of cake?
A cupcake. 😬 I don’t have a sweet tooth lol.
Edible.
Chocolate w/ chocolate mousse and chocolate fudge frosting
Carrot cake.
Cherry cheesecake
Strongly disagree, the traditional wedge cut is superior. The long slice cut into smaller slices means that the edges get more frosting than the middle parts. The V cut ensures an even distribution of all contents for all slices. If the cake's consistency makes it hard to cut thin slices, that other method would probably be difficult to execute too.
I strongly agree with your strong disagreement!
What are cake leftovers? Never heard of them
Agreed.
Put a slice of bread on any part of the cake that’s exposed and secure with a toothpick! It keeps it fresh for days! And if you are displaying your cake turn the cake to the uncut side to keep the appearance of a fresh cake!
That's brilliant! Thanks for the information.
@@gwyn9846 Absolutely! You’re so welcome! Have an awesome day!
My mom just said “I’m not surprised!” She is a huge bread fan lol. Great information! Thank you for sharing!!
I run the knife under some hot water making the knife a bit hot and it makes the cut go through a lot smoother. Same with running hot water on a ice cream scooper to make it easier to scoop smoothly
Mashing two halves of a frosted cake together looks easy when animated, but that’s not how it’s gonna go in practice irl, as lovely as the idea sounds.
Agreed. Sounds like the esteemed Mr. Galton, 2:15 never baked a cake or had to be in charge of pushing those pieces together. That's an issue that might require input from an engineer.
After this video I still don’t know how to cut a cake lol
I would feel embarrassed to serve those tiny slices of cake to my guests 😕
Agreed !
Yet.... you could use the method and just make the portions larger to your preference. How is that not obvious?
jesus just cut it bigger wtf hahshahshahahahs
Do you only allow one slice per person? They can have more than one slice. That’s explained in the video.
If they want more they can just come back for seconds.
The cutting board method creates uneven frosting distribution for the round cake when it didn't have to be that way. You obviously can't avoid that with larger cakes. And how does the typical wedge cut give people "too much, or too little frosting"? Sorry, this whole video was stupid.
It can’t be avoided with rectangular or sheet cakes, or huge round cakes.
3:30 Wrapping the cake in rubber band is pretty disgusting tho.
And also you need one hell of a hard cake for that to work, with normal cakes the rubber band would just push into the cake
I once cut a cake like this and people went ballistic.
But how did the slices turn out?
@@genxx2724 A girl cut a cake like this at her bday party recently. Honestly the cake tasted kinda weird (I had cake from this bakery before so it's not the bakery). I could go into long details about it, but keeping it short.. don't do this to you guests.
This ruins the entire design on the cake
The cutting board method is cool, but those slices are too small in my opinion
How do I get that first middle slice out without dropping it?
This Chanel makes me hungry🤤
People won't always get the border then. With Rührteig this part is pretty neat.
I think I like that cut cutting board method I am going to try that tomorrow. 🤔
If you slice the cake in the center twice and fly the outside half together it will preserve the moisture in the cake slide them together it fills the air off good grief and I am not Charlie Brown but I'm a brown guy haha
This is nothing new caterers have been doing this for years ,at weddings, anniversary parties anywhere there’s a large or even a small cake.😊
The first chocolate cake that is cut in this video..what is it called and where is the recipe, I’ve been looking for years! Please help
Most ridiculous thing I've seen in a long time.
I've been doing everything correctly my entire life.
Covid has ruined sharing food with others for me 👀
Yes! And blowing out birthday candles! The spit that flies on the cake is disgusting!!!
COVID or paranoia?
What they do not tell you is if you cut your cake like this (from the center) and put both ends together to keep it from drying out, the cake will melt and fall apart at room temperature. It is better to cut it in triangle shape if you plan on leaving it out.
Best way to keep the cake fresh.... eat it same day you baked it !
BUT... you cannot EAT THE CAKE and HAVE IT TOO! And that's the CORRECT way of the quote....
Because it is possible TO HAVE THE CAKE and THEN EAT IT TOO!
I think it means the same thing either way, because it’s an action being considered, not already done. If you keep it, you don’t enjoy the eating; and if you eat it, you don’t have it anymore. It’s like saying you can’t save your money and spend it, too. Doesn’t matter which way it’s stated. I never understood the expression. Recently I put my embarrassment aside and someone explained it.
@@genxx2724
Not really....
The order of the ACTION IS IMPORTANT- for the LOGICAL MINDED !
You can SAVE MONEY and THEN SPEND IT... but you CANNOT SPEND IT and then SAVE IT!
There is a tendency in American English to DISTORT the original ENGLISH...
ASS instead of ARSE
ALUMINUM instead of ALUMINIUM
NARSISISM (pronouncing spelling) instead of NARKISISM
EXCETERA instead of ETCETERA..
Etcetera, etcetera, etcetera....
Best to you
just make cupcakes
yeah, that's certainly a WAY to cut a cake
Chocolate vanilla,lemon ,banana,done right,Baked right.

This video shows too much irrelevant stuff. Show us how to cut the dang cake from beginning to end.
Why these methods have been largely ignored? Because it’s ANNOYING! And it’s being CHEAP!
Just use bakers or butchers twine in place of dental floss
for me I could slice a square shape cake over a round one.
They teach you how to cut cake at West Point. You're doing it wrong.
That’s amazing. What is their technique? Kinda funny for the military to concern itself with the serving of cake. But if cake is encountered, it must be done with military precision!
Load of bull.
