When I see professional pastry chefs at work, I’m always impressed by the fearlessness of their movements. A skilled baker knows how to roll dough so thin without tearing that it is nearly translucent. In a couple of swift muscle-memorized movements, a pro can dislodgefrom their pans into their bare hands, flopping them onto what looks like a precariously high tower of frosting and cake without batting an eye.
But for those of us who merely dabble in pastry—and still want results that look like they came from a pair of those professional hands—a cake lifter is a game changer. And a safeguard for potential birthday disasters. What’s more? You might already have one in your kitchen. When you see a cake lifter, you might find yourself thinking, Isn’t that basically just a pizza peel? And the answer is, yeah, pretty much. Like many metal pizza peels, the Nordic Ware cake lifter is shaped like giant offset spatula with a 10-inch diameter. The only difference between cake lifters and pizza peels is that pizza peels have longer handles for reaching into pizza ovens. In testing both lifters and peels, I found that the two can be used pretty much interchangeably.
