A viral video on TikTok shows how to cut a cake in a fun way without needing a knife, spatula, or even plates.
The moment to cut the cake is always full of suggestions and requests. Some want it with frosting, others without, some prefer a small piece, while others ask for a more generous portion.
Cutting it evenly can also be tricky, and for a round cake, which usually requires more planning, many believe they have the best recipe for success in this task. Some people cut a small circle in the center of the cake and then divide the rest into slices.
Others go straight to cutting it into pieces, and there are other methods that divide the cake into squares or even triangles. After that, there’s still the job of placing it on plates and serving.
But a viral TikTok video, with almost 2 million views, suggests a genius trick to divide a cake in a way that makes all guests happy, without needing a knife, forks, or anyone to serve the pieces of cake.
The clip posted shows a young woman’s 20th birthday, and right after she blows out the candles, each guest uses a wine glass to take the desired amount of cake.
The idea was well received by many TikTokers: “A cake trick I can get behind,” one commented. “I will never eat cake any other way again.”
“This is blowing my mind. Why didn’t I think of this?” said another.
“I will never cut a cake again,” wrote a third.
