- Cut the cake into quarters (4 pieces) using 2 of the cuts – one horizontally down the centre of the cake and the other vertically down the centre of the cake. This will leave you with 4 pieces (or slices) of cake.
- Then take all 4 pieces and arrange them in a stack that is 4 pieces high.
- Finally, you can just cut that stack of 4 pieces in half – using your third and final cut – and then you will end up with 8 pieces of cake
hope it helps you☺☺
