Wedding Cake Cutting Guide
|
This guide shows how to cut popular shaped wedding tiers into pieces
approximately 1 in. x 2 in. by two layers high (about 4 in.). Even if a larger serving
size is desired, the order of cutting is still the same. The first step in cutting is to
remove the top tier, and then begin the cutting with the 2nd tier followed by the
3rd, 4th and so on. The top tier is usually saved for the first anniversary, so it is
not calculated into the serving amount.
Round Tiers:
Move in two inches from the tier's outer edge; cut a circle and then slice 1 in.
pieces within the circle. Now move in another 2 in., cut another circle, slice 1 in.
pieces and so on until the tier is completely cut. The center core of each tier and
the small top tier can be cut into 3rds, 4ths, and 6ths, depending on size.
Square Tiers:
Move in 2 in. from the outer edge and cut across. Then slice 1 in. pieces of cake.
Now move in another 2 in. and slice again until the entire tier is cut.
Heart Tiers:
Divide the tiers vertically into 1/2ths,
4ths, 6ths and 8ths. Within rows,
slice 1 in. pieces of cake.
Petal Tiers:
Cut similar to round tiers as
diagram shows.
