Let's face it: the cake cutting thing can be an awkward experience. Make it a little easier and funkier with this two-in-one cake cutter and server that kinda looks like cheese! Honestly, this thing is brilliant. (And it comes in different colors! I like orange, green and yellow.)
Here are some more options for cake knives and serving sets that could have the power to turn an awkward cake cutting situation into a rockin' good time…
Nambe has a fantastic twist (get it?) on the classic cake serving set. These stainless steel babies are freaking sexy.
Here's another contemporary cake cutting set that's also made of stainless steel.
I love this cake knife from Uncommon Goods that looks like a butcher knife. It's apparently engineered to dice through gooey layers of cake without sticking or leaving residue on the blade.
These funky patterned cake knives made of high-grade, shatter-resistant melamine are freaking phenomenal. Perfect for super colorful weddings!

Dude! A musical cake knife — the ultimate distraction! It has three different, pre-programmed songs, including the wedding march, BUT you can also record your very own song to play back when it's time to cut the cake.

We used a pizza server provided by our caterer to cut the cake lol.
OMG! Need bloody knife! NEEEEEED IT!
Must…have…cake saw!
I thought I’d seen the best thing ever until I saw the crocodile one as well. Now I’m having a dilema.
BOTH! 😉 But no matter which one you choose, I can’t wait to see the pictures! 🙂
Cake Breaker and Table Saw FTW!
Or have cupcakes instead. 🙂
You can do both – we cut one of our cupcakes and split it.
I LOVE that crocodile cutter. I always thought the cake-cutting ritual was kind of silly, but with a crocodile in hand… 😉
Also? These are the best housewarming gifts EVAR

Ooh, you just made me add that to the roundup! Amazing.
i wanted to have *just* cupcakes, but my mom really, reeeeally wants to make us a small cutting cake. i TOTALLY bought the bloody evidence chef’s knife, like, a week ago… that’s my compromise. you can make us a cake to cut, but i’m cutting it with a bloody knife! haha. 😉
We are using my hunting knife (thoroughly cleaned) to cut our cake
The cake breaker is fantastic! I have a thing for odd esoteric utensils like anchovy forks an blueberry spoons. And now… cake breakers!
Also, the bloody evidence knife just might help me enforce my “no smashing cake in the face” rule!
I just showed my woodworker fiance the cake saw, and he’s totally in love. Guess we finally have a cake knife! 😀
I found Uncommon Goods the other day on Stumbleupon and fell in love! That cake cutter is reason #282 that it’s one of my new faves. The two-in-one gadget in the first photo is also pretty nifty.
My husband and I cut our cake with the biggest vintage meat cleaver we could find on Ebay.
Nineteen inches long, and solid cast steel! It was awesome. Plus, now we have a big-ass knife that will probably last, like, forever!
OMG!! MUST, MUST, MUST have one of those colourful knives!! Regardless if we cut a cake or not, I *have* to have one! 😀
OH MY GOODNESS. That musical cake cutter + the Final Fantasy Victory Fanfare = FRICKIN’ AWESOME GEEK WEDDING.
Oh, I love the beachy set and the vine set!! What to do!!! 🙂
We used a replica of Aragorn’s Elven Dagger. We had cupcakes too – I was going to make a small cake for cutting but ran out of time, so we just cut a cupcake in half.

Um, yeah. I just added that officially to the roundup. Amazing choice.
I NEEEEEDDD that cake saw soo bad!! My husband and I are both carpenters and that is the absolute coolest thing Ive ever seen!
this is my favourite cake slice, I’m hoping to get one as a wedding gift!
I wish those colorful knives had a hole in the handle. I would love to get the polka dot one just to hang up in my kitchen (since it matches the color scheme so nicely). It seems a crying shame to put something like that in a drawer.
I just ordered the Bloody Evidence Knife for our Halloween Wedding!!! We were thinking of getting a nice meat cleaver but this was perfect! Especially since our cake will have rasberry filling and look like its bleeding! haha! Best part was it only cost $14.99 + shipping (which was like $5). And I had it in 2 days! So exciting! Thanks again OBB!
AWESOME! Can’t wait to see the photos… and the look on your guests’ faces. 🙂
Anybody use a cake breaker before? I totally love it but I’m worried it won’t cut my red velvet or carrot cakes! Advice???? Opinions?????
A cake breaker is actually really useful for angel food cake since it lets you cut it without smooshing the (usually) very light and delicate angel food cake. 🙂 Now you know and as GI Joe says – that’s half the battle!
I love these cake sets I just wish you had a set that had a bride and groom skeletons on it to match our glasses and our cake topper.
