The PME cake knife is a straightforward, well-made slicing tool designed specifically for cutting sponges, layered cakes, and delicate baked goods. At 35.5cm, the blade is long enough to draw cleanly through a full-sized round or sheet cake in a single pass, which matters when presentation is important and crumb scatter needs to be kept to a minimum.

The serrated edge does the work here — it grips the surface of soft sponge without compressing it, allowing the blade to move through cleanly rather than dragging or tearing. For operations producing celebration cakes, afternoon tea services, or dessert platters, that clean cut translates directly into better-looking portions with less wastage from crushed or uneven slices.

  • Serrated edge cuts through soft sponge without compression or tearing
  • Long blade length allows single-pass cuts on standard round and sheet cakes
  • Stainless steel construction resists staining and holds its edge under regular use
  • Lightweight build reduces hand fatigue during repetitive portioning
  • Hand wash only — straightforward to maintain with warm soapy water

This knife is well suited to bakeries, patisseries, hotel banqueting kitchens, and any catering operation where cakes are portioned regularly. It is a single-purpose tool and works best in that role — operators needing a general-purpose slicing knife for bread or savoury work would be better served by a different blade profile.

If you're equipping a new pastry section or want to make sure this is the right size for your typical cake dimensions, feel free to get in touch with the team.

Frequently asked questions

Is this knife suitable for cutting layered celebration cakes as well as plain sponges?

Yes — the serrated edge and blade length make it well suited to both single-layer sponges and multi-tiered celebration cakes. The serration grips without compressing, which helps keep soft fillings and layers intact as the blade passes through.

Can this knife be put through a commercial dishwasher?

PME specify hand washing only in warm soapy water for this knife. Regular dishwasher cycles can blunt serrated edges over time and may affect the handle finish, so hand washing is the recommended approach to maintain performance.

Is this knife appropriate for high-volume bakery or banqueting use?

It is well suited to regular daily use in bakeries, patisseries, and banqueting kitchens where cakes are portioned consistently. For operations running very high volumes with continuous portioning across long shifts, it is worth considering whether a heavier-duty or longer-bladed option might offer better longevity under that level of demand.
