How to Cut a Vanilla Slice

Think you know how to cut a vanilla slice? Think again.

We’ve all been there. You’re ready to dive into your delicious Ferguson Plarre Vanilla Slice, but one wrong move and the whole thing squishes out the sides like a custard explosion. The flaky pastry cracks, the filling slides, and suddenly your dreamy dessert is a hot mess — possibly all over your face!

But here’s the hack: don’t cut from the top down.

Instead, gently turn your vanilla slice onto its side, so the custard layer is facing up. Then run a sharp knife through it horizontally. The result? A clean, even cut with every delicious layer still perfectly intact.

Simple. Satisfying. And totally mess-free.
