If you like to cut layer cakes in half horizontally (called torting), have a serrated blade longer than the diameter of the cake on hand. This is a difficult knife to find, but fortunately Parrish Magic Line (see Equipment Sources) carries the perfect one with a 14-inch deeply serrated blade. It also can be used to make wavy decorative lines on the surface of a frosted cake.
