Paragraph 1
Christmas cake is a
-old festive tradition. The vast
of people who enjoy this seasonal treat are unaware that there is a science behind slicing it. A professor of
mathematics and
in the UK tested several hypotheses on the best
to cut a Christmas cake into
. He focused on how to dissect the cake while leaving the insides as
as possible. His
was to cut the cake across the middle into two semicircles, then cut slices and push the
halves together. Perhaps he would admit that this isn't
rocket science.
