How to Trim and Cut Cake Layers 

Zoë François demonstrates how to trim and cut your cake into even layers like a professional. Be sure to watch all four parts in this cake series!
There's no sense in learning how to pipe the perfect rose if your cake is listing and the icing is falling off or covered in cake crumbs. It's just as important to know how to trim and slice your cake, as it is to write “Happy Birthday” in fancy letters, so I'm going to show you how to create a professional looking cake from start to finish. In this video I will start with how to trim and cut cake layers.
The exact recipes from this tutorial can be found in my cookbook, Zoë Bakes Cakes, which can be found wherever books are sold!
Tools for trimming and slicing the layers (affiliate links):
Cake Turner - let it do some of the work for you and get a more even cut. amzn.to/3xb7WrH
Super Slicer Knife - The long serrated blade is my favorite for cutting cake with the least amount of crumbs. amzn.to/3xbUKmc
Round Cardboard Cake Circles - I always build my cakes on them for ease of mobility. amzn.to/3PDTWgb
Cake Pans - these straight-sided pans mean less trimming and cutting. I used 8x3”. amzn.to/3Txf352
