cutting cake
Dividing the dessert
Cutting cake refers to the ceremonial act of slicing a cake at weddings, birthdays, or other celebrations—a moment often photographed or applauded.
The phrase also names the designated cake for this ritual, as opposed to sheet cakes served to guests: The cutting cake was three tiers of buttercream.
At weddings, the couple cuts together, sometimes feeding each other a bite.
