Eating pie and cake is dangerous sport. Somehow the expression “piece of cake” evolved to mean something that was quite easy to accomplish. Considering just the amount of wedding-cake fiascos and pies-in-the-face that occur on a daily basis, this saying is something of a farce. Perhaps we let it slide because cake is so sweet and delicious. In any event, the actual serving of a piece of cake usually isn’t fraught with tension. While the Nambe Rocks Cake Plate
Nobody wants to be faced with choices when they are presented with cake (or brownies). The answer to any and all cake-related questions should be a simple ‘yes’. Now it can be. Whether you have a thing for yellow, strawberry or chocolate, the Dividable Brownie/Cake Pan can provide. Featuring three dividers that can be used (or not) to separate different batters, the customizable pan can bake up to four different varieties of cake or brownies at a time.
Most cake recipes don’t usually come in sizes made for a fourth of a 13 x 9 pan, so it might be prudent to pick up four pans for four cakes. Of course, then that would negate the need for the dividers, but hey, then you would have four big cakes instead of four little cakes. Yes.
Designed by Maria Kivijärvi, the Magisso Cake Server is an elegant option for slicing and serving cake. Cut from a single piece of mirrored stainless steel, the utensil acts both as a knife and as a spatula. Sliding the implement through cake, and then squeezing it shut accomplishes service in one easy motion. Seeing it in action is a bit like imagining what it would be like to simply reach out and grab at a slice of cake—except this way you won’t ruin the cake for everybody else.
Peanut butter and jelly not sweet enough for ya? Instead of topping it with sugar, try using cake instead of bread. Sure, good ol’ white bread might as well be made with sugar, but sometimes it’s best just to cut to the chase. The Cakewich from Fred & Friends is a silicone baking pan shaped to look like sliced bread. Bake, slice and fill with your favorite sweet treats. Just be forewarned if you have a penchant for chocolate cake… somehow I don’t think adding turkey will too well mimic a turkey on dark rye.
Sometimes it’s not rude to point. Offering a friend or little one the chance to scrape the bowl after mixing up a batch of deliciousness definitely qualifies. The Batter Finger makes making cookies, cake and brownies even more fun. The opportunity to share never tasted so good.
The finger-shaped spatula features a long handle and flexible silicone end for easy use when creating sweet treats. Narrower than traditional spatulas, the Batter Finger can also be used to scrape out the last bit of peanut butter from the jar. Perfect, because doesn’t a peanut butter brownie sound really good just about now?
