  • Baltimore, circa 1940 by S. Kirk and Sons
  • Dimensions: 10 1/2 inches length

A Cake Breaker is a wonderful serving piece and every household is not complete without one. This cake breaker has a sterling silver handle with silver plate extended tines.

A cake breaker is simply a tool used to cut cake without flattening it. Baked treats that require a more detailed touch, like angel’s food and sponge cakes, are prone to tearing if they are cut with a standard chef’s knife. This is where the cake breaker comes in. To use the cake breaker, you slide the prongs into the cake with a gentle wiggling motion and just slice through. The sharp individual pins pierce the slice, firmly holding the portion in place while creating a straight line through the sponge.

Our American Sterling Silver Cake Breaker is very attractive in design. We think it would make a wonderful addition to your table as well as a great gift.
