Cake servers often come in one size and can't help much when it comes to dividing a dessert into equal portions, which is where the Sharing Knife looks to offer a hand.

Designed by Ryan Jongwoo Choi, the Sharing Knife features a customizable aesthetic that lets users adjust the size of it to the exact specifications of the dessert and the piece size desired.

The Sharing Knife is depressed into the dessert when the appropriate size has been chosen and then allows the piece to be lifted out. This makes the [cake server](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stainless-steel-pizza-cutter) truly an [all-in-one kitchen device](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/seattle-ultrasonics) that will make [sectioning and serving cake](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cake-picnic) an easier endeavor that won't result in certain people getting more or less of the sweet treat.
