Cutting cakes neatly is important, because they can get crumbly or squashed very easily.  We find  sharp cook's knife (measuring 18cm) is best and to use a gentle sawing movement.  A serrated knife - again with gentle sawing movements - is the only one to use for cutting sponge cakes horizontally.  You will also need two palette knives, one large and the other small, for spreading.
