<p>This is probably a dumb question…Can I cut a Kosher cake with a regular (non-Kosher) knife?</p>
<p>Thanks!</p>
<p>If you are Othodox Jewish I don’t think so.</p>
<p>Not if the people you are serving take kashruth seriously. You aksi can’t servie it on or from nonkosher plates Put the cake on a brand-new plate and cut with brand new knife or put on nice paper plate and cut if you can with a plastic knife from a newly opened package. (Glass is neutral and probably will be acceptabce if you have glass plates, but there are different levels of observance, so you will need to check.) On the other hand, there are people who keep kosher homes who do not observe the dietary rules outside their homes, so if that is your audience it won’t matter–but then again, you wouldn’t be having a kosher cake if that were the case.</p>
<p>Thanks everybody. I’m bringing it to a Jewish senior citizens’ home. They only allow Kosher. I think I’ll just let them provide a knife and serve it.</p>
<p>That’s really nice of you to do that, and to respect their traditions. What’s the occasion?</p>
<p>If they’re very strict, they’ll want you to bring it in its original packaging.</p>

<br>
<p>a good solution!</p>
<p>I’m back and the Kosher cake is served! 
And it was really good.</p>
<p>And oh yeah, I made sure it was still in the Kosher bakery box. What a great bakery.</p>
<p>Son had a concert there, and we had a little party afterwards.</p>
