Spent $47 on a fancy cake leveler and my serrated knife still does the job better
I picked up a spring loaded cake leveler at a baking store in Portland last month for $47 because my layers always came out lopsided. Used it twice and it just squished the crumb and left a wavy cut every time. Went back to my plain old serrated knife and a steady hand, and the layers came out flat on the first try. Has anyone else had a gadget make their baking worse instead of better?
