How to cut chocolate slices without cracking?
To cut chocolate slices without cracking them, ensure the slice is completely set and chilled. Use a sharp knife, heating it under hot water and drying it before each cut. This method helps the knife glide through the chocolate smoothly, reducing the chance of the chocolate cracking.
Additionally, make slow, gentle cuts rather than applying too much pressure, which can also help prevent the chocolate layer from breaking.
