Something as apparently simple as cutting a cake also has its secrets. Getting all the pieces to turn out well requires technique, or at least this is what the tiktoker Sidneyraz defends, who has gone viral on the social network for telling what is the best way to cut a cake without it crumbling everywhere.
The content creator points out that it is a mistake to start cutting from the center, because all we will do is crumble it. The best thing, he points out, is to start making the cuts on the outside and to prove it he does the test, which he shares with his followers.
Sidney places the knife down and with the serrated side facing the cake begins to cut into it. In the video you can see how the cut comes out perfect and the sweet does not crumble. Many of his fans were very surprised by this revelation: “I have to try it, go to the store to buy a cake,” said one. “I bake cakes for a living and I didn’t know this trick,” recounted another.
But not all have been good comments. Some Internet users have taken the opportunity to criticize the absurdity of being obsessed with something like this, and to show their opinion regarding the crumbs that the cake gives off when it is cut.
“I can honestly say that crumbs in the frosting have never reduced my enjoyment of a piece of cake!” And this one: “Life is too short to worry about the position of the crumbs, just eat the cake and enjoy.”
There has also been constructive feedback, and many people have been encouraged to share their methods for cutting a cake and not destroying it, such as heating the knife or using dental floss.
“Something we were taught when I worked in a restaurant that was also a bakery was to run very hot water and run the knife under it for about 30 seconds before each cut into a cake. It helps keep the icing and cake from sticking together and it comes out cleaner,†another person offered.
In short, cutting the pieces of cake in this way can be a way of surprising the guests, although following the recipe to the letter (sweet preparations require it more than salty ones) and presenting it properly is also key. to get the best result.
