How to cut a sponge cake: achieve perfectly flat cakes
These unusual but effective tips will help you cut a sponge cake evenly and impress your guests. SSPDaily has prepared original methods of cutting a cake into cakes.
The dental floss method
One of the unconventional ways to cut a sponge cake evenly is to use dental floss. Take a long piece of odorless dental floss and hold it at both ends. Carefully insert the dental floss horizontally into the sponge cake, about one centimeter from the top.
Cutting technique with a bread knife
Another tip for getting even sponge cake slices is to use a bread knife. Unlike a regular straight-blade knife, the serrated blade of a bread knife allows it to easily pass through the soft texture of sponge cake.
Cake cutting ring
One unusual but effective way to achieve an even cut in a sponge cake is to use a cake cutter ring. By placing this specialized tool in the center of the sponge cake, it acts as a reliable guide for slicing. Align the knife with the edge of the cake cutter and cut smoothly around its perimeter. This simple technique ensures that both the size and shape of each cake is the same.
