Abstract
A configurable cutting device for large cakes and other baked items that provides varied shapes and dimensions of cut pieces using a single cutting motion. The handles are ergonomically designed, decorative and provide control of the blades, and the ability to apply increased downward pressure for increased cutting force without direct contact with the blades. The device can be folded down and/or disassembled for easy cleaning and storage.
Claims10
A device for reducing the time and effort required to slice large cakes and other baked goods comprising a first set of substantially parallel cutting blades, and a second set of substantially parallel cutting blades whereby a plurality of slices can be completed with a single motion.
A device for reducing the time and effort required to selectively cut large cakes and other baked goods into various shapes and sized pieces comprising one or more cutting modules having releasably engaging hinges for connection with additional cutting modules.
A method and device for reducing the amount of time and effort required to cut large unitary items into many substantially uniform smaller pieces comprising the steps of:
- a. determining the number of cutting modules necessary to cover the area desired to be cut;
- b. hingedly attaching the cutting modules together to create a combined cutting surface equal to or greater than the area desired to be cut;
- c. determining the size and shape of the desired pieces after cutting;
- d. adjusting the angle and or position of the cutting blades to match the desired size and shape;
- e. holding the cutting device above the item to be cut;
- and
- f. applying downward pressure on the cutting device to cut through the item and create the smaller pieces.
